I would bother to write it myself but currently have a little more than I like on my plate.

I would rather not have to write it myself for the n900 or at worst for android..or even worser () use someone else's android app.
(which I am loathe to do for obvious privacy concerns)

The needed app in question is for one of my security side businesses...
Security Property Watch..
and I need a decent stable reliable (preferably) n900 app for it ..

similar android apps are such as this :
https://www.gocanvas.com/mobile-form...tion-Checklist

fundamentally the standard checklists include such as found here for example :
http://www.globalhomewatch.com/checklist/
http://sullivanhomeservices.com/home...kly-checklist/
http://www.cottagetocastlehw.com/upl...cklist%20A.pdf

Many would say "why not just use or make an app for android ?"
frankly...the good thing about the n900 IS the fact it is very much like Latin...the very dead language....immutable...and unchanging...which is absolutely perfect ...
Like Latin...
The N900 will not be going through any more hideous os upheavals that require apps to be rewritten ...
meaning the stability and lifespan of n900 apps is long..
meaning less B.S. to deal with.
less aggravation ...and less downtime for me.


-What I need is such a program with editable (and the ability to add new ) fields.

-The app having the ability of a memory of past client templates and details (such as name, address, multiple phone #, emergency numbers, and multiple email addresses.)

-All fields having the option of utilizing the n900 camera (video too if possible and possibly audio recorder ) to take dated timed photos (and keep them in line with the app form as mentioned next..)

And lastly the ability to turn the total completed fields into a form (preferably a pdf since most people still rely on such doc types....if I absolutely must have to convert the doc to a pdf after transferring it to a pc ...then that is bearable...) which can then be emailed to multiple parties...either immediately or stored for mailing at a later date.

The android Home Watch app is a prime example of this needed form ..video is available for viewing on youtube.....

Naturally I do not expect anyone to do this for free...
So get back to me and let me know if :
A- you can do it.
B- what sum would be suitable for your work.

and I'll mull over the massive flood of responses and pick properly
(eeny meany miney moe style )
