David, and others,

I'd like to tell you about an app that the developer and I worked out together - and it is configurable by the user. My idea was to make a data entry program for my iPod touch and he had an app that almost worked. I wrote, and gave suggestions and he developed. Now the app is configurable and could be used for a wide variety of types of field data. The app is:

Forms (customizable)
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/forms-customizable/id503870383?mt=8

and was written by:

Sreedhar

And you can find it in iTunes. It is reasonably priced, especially considering that it so flexible.

Cheers,

Jim

I'd like a way to replace data entry on paper in the field with an electronic alternative. Ultimately the data end up in a spreadsheet, but sometimes using formulae (e.g., 3*5 + 4*2 + 6, for numbers of inflorescences with different numbers of flowers). Has anyone used something like the Blackberry PlayBook, an Android tablet, Nook, iPad, etc. with spreadsheet software? Recommendations for or against particular solutions?

I have also considered a ruggedized PC and a ruggedized tablet (Motion F5V), but they are a LOT more expensive than other tablet options would be.
