(Get the code!)
I know that I am late to this conversation, but I would like to put in my 2 cents.
I am reviewing MoSync and it looks like it would be a good platform to build the mobile solution for the following reasons:
1) As the goal is an open source solution, there is no additional cost.
2) Allows for development to be either HTML5/Java script and/or C/C++ (I am most familiar with C++)
3) The same source code allows for the creation of multiple native applications (iOS, Android, Blackberry, etc.)
Second, I would like to see the file format for transactions to support some form of modification ID. The truly hard part of this problem is syncronizing changes between the applications. I use the mobile version while on travel while my wife continues to update the desktop version. It is not a simple copy of the latest XML file, but instead a careful merge of the two. Only gets worse if we both modify a historic record.
Thanks for listening.
