Default What logbook software do you use?

I just bought my first "smart phone" and I'm thinking about getting some logbook software. I used to keep my logbook in a Microsoft Acess file but got lazy after a while. I'd rather have something more sophisticated than a plain old excel spreadsheet and some of the logbook software I've seen provides great interface. That being said.... What do you guys think?

^Agreed!

Logbook Pro and The Airline Pilot's Daily Aviation Logbook are my suggestions. Just be sure your smart phone has a touch screen (ie it has a stylus that you use to select things on the screen) or it won't work. That being said, the two work together seamlessly and take care of everything you could ever want when it comes to your logbook. I would never go back to logging time by hand, these programs take care of everything for me. Highly recommended!

The TREO 600 works well. If you are using Windows Vista, expect some difficulty in getting the APDL to interface. If you run into problems, send LogBook Pro and email, and they can provide you with tech support for Vista problems.

I have the "Shadow" from T-mobile. Its not a touch screen so I wonder if the software would work. I suppose now that I know Logbook pro seems to the the best choice I'll call them up and see what they say about the compatibility. Thanks a lot!
