Evernote (see www.evernote.com) has an interface to the iPhone. Interestingly, the notes themselves in the Evernote collection have a lat/lon attribute, that I still have to figure out how they get populated. I don't own an iPhone, but I have a few invites to Evernote -- I would be happy to send you one if you want. > -- > Tyler A.
