Some things immediately came up when viewing the movie; I hope you don't mind me posting them so soon. I imagine the app does not require a live connection to the server. In order to work offline, I think that the app must - clearly show the time of downloading each document, - be able to capture and store multiple notes when offline and forward them when online. A way of reviewing the stored notes, possibly edit or remove them would be a bonus. I could imagine that captured but not yet forwarded notes appear in the 'capture.org' document entry (on the App), marked as not-forwarded and being editable and removable. After syncing, these notes become part of the real capture.org document and thus read-only, just like the rest. Oh well, you probably thought of all that, so I'll just shut up now...

I've been working with Carsten on a free iPhone app for = Org. We are still working out some of the details, but so far we = have it running on the phone in a fairly usable state. It needs = some polish, but it is very nice to see my Org data easily accessible on = a mobile device with offline access. To be clear, we aren't trying = to run Emacs on the device. The goal is to view Org files and = agendas as well as capture new notes.

Here is a teaser video of the app running in the simulator: http://ncogni.to/mobileorg-d= emo1.mov

Once we feel the basics are worked out, we will = solicit a request for beta testers and feedback, but for now you'll have = to be satisfied with the demo video = :)
