Hello friends,

I am teaching a software design and documentation course at a nearby
university and in an effort to demonstrate the "proper" planning and design
of a software program I am designing a Pocket-PC record keeper for
beekeepers.  I plan on using the project for me to learn development, but
also to teach my students how to work with the world in designing their
applications.

I have a bunch of ideas for how this would look but I am also looking for
input as to what kind of features you would like to see included.  If you
had a small handheld computer that you take with you into your yards:
*  What information would you like to write down?
*  What information would you like to have on hand?

I also plan on having it interact with a full-size computer too for data
transfer and storage.  How would you like to see or play with the
information you gather?

Thanks for any input you can provide.  As this thing gets developed
(hopefully by the end of the summer; before my class starts), I plan on
making our betas available.  Stay tuned.
