We've been using a handheld Jornada 545 for the past year with our sideline
operation.  We've numbered all of the hives and have found it is quite easy
using a small database program on the Jornada.  We chose HandDbase from ddh
software, www.ddhsoftware.com.  It cost 25.00 and was easy to use.  We don't
use a large number of fields and some of them are kept hidden until
necessary, but overall it has been quite helpful in deciding which hives to
split, when, and what treatments are necessary.

All of course IMHO,
