I have downloaded the BirdTrack App for my Android phone (AyePhone to follow later in the year apparently) and have been using it for a couple of weeks now.
It picks up your location by GPS (once you've remembered to switch it on) and it is very simple and easy to use out in the field. Previously I used to come home and enter sightings on BirdTrack on my PC but would struggle to remember everything.
I was in a very remote location this morning and the beauty of GPS came into its own. The sightings are stored and then verified and uploaded at your leisure once you get home so it doesn't burn your data up.
Fully recommend it:t:
