Depends on how fast you want to spot unfinished items. Integrating the visual 
clue into the text rendering would make it faster IMHO.

- I agree that strikeout is very hard to read, but it is very easy to 
understand
- italics are easy to read, but hard to understand (IMHO they don't help at 
all, no one remembers which one are italic - there is no intuitive mapping)
- light gray is easy to read, but easy to confuse with disabled items

Usability-wise the optimum would be green on white for finished, red on white 
for unfinished and black on red for overdue. But I guess then people would 
complain that it's ugly :)

bye...
