I would like to be able to buy a mobile database application similar to Smartlist To Go or others available on Palm OS. The DB does not have to be fully relational for my purposes. Desired features:
- Ability to create multiple independent lists of various types (inventories, shopping list, packing lists, chronological lists).
- Ability to define desired fields and field types for each record.
- Field types including text, numeric, checkbox, date, time, pick list.
- Ability to sort on any field (ideally a combination of 2-3 fields; e.g., sort by Author then by Title).
- Ability to filter out records based on field values (e.g., show only checked records in shopping list).
- Ability to filter and sort simultaneously (e.g., only checked records, sorted by grocery store aisle).
- Ability to import and export content in CSV format.
- Sync with a desktop app, or at least an easy backup solution with mobile version designated as primary. (e.g., one click to save all DBs on PC in CSV).
I know I am not the only one who wants such an app for Android (or WebOS or iPhone). The only thing making me hesitate betwen Android or WebOS is waiting to see which one gets such a database first. I would think this would be easy with SQLite running under the hood.
P.S. The database app does *not* need to support encryption--there are separate password apps for that.
