Users,
What do you use to capture when away from orgmode (in the car, on the
subway) and what system do you use to migrate those captures into
orgmode? Right now I just use a notebook and a pen--and it works fairly
well--but moving from notebook to org is certainly a pain, and I am sure
I am losing information.
What do you use? And if you use mobileorg, then how well does it work?
Thanks,
Sample

When I had a smartphone, I used mobileorg and it worked beautifully.

I have been using mobileorg lately but have been troubled by
org-mobile-pull not syncing todo states and tags correctly. Most of
the times, these end up as errors in flagged.org.
Capturing notes and refiling them works well though.

I tried mobileorg (for Android) when it was first made available but it
didn't suit me and I didn't particularly like my Android phones in any
case :(
I use a Nokia N900 (maemo, aka linux) or Nokia E7 (Symbian) these days,
both of which have real keyboards. In either case, I simply ssh to my
desktop and run emacs in screen to take notes. With screen, I can have
an instance of emacs running constantly which I can access very
quickly.

I use Toodledo (http://toodledo.com). I've been working on
org-toodledo.el that syncs todo items between an org file and the
toodledo server. There are multiple other toodledo clients including
one for the iPhone / iPad that work nicely.
The system works pretty well for my needs (todo list management). I do
most of my work in org-mode, and use toodledo mostly just for the mobile
use case (or remote when I don't have my computer).
The project is up on git:

I am using Mobile-Org on my Android phone. And I do use it for input
only. I love the "share with.../Mobile Org"-feature that lets me
easily share web pages, RSS feed entries, and such.
Although plain text todos I prefer to write on my hipster PDA[1]
which consists of a folded paper and a space pen. It is just faster
than grabbing the phone, beat the lock screen, start up Mobile Org,
hit the "new task"-button, hit the entry line to start up the
keyboard, and then ... what was it I wanted to write down again?
> What do you use? And if you use mobileorg, then how well does it work?
For sharing something which is already written, I love it.
For having stuff from my desktop Org on the road I've had troubles:
I do have /way/ too much stuff on my desktop to blindly add
everything to Org Mobile. And I could not find the time to get a
setup that exports only stuff I need such as contacts, current
errands, ... yet.
