Hand Held Remote Access

Hi All. I was wondering if anyone would be able to recomend any hardware or software besides iphone or ipad (because I know about them) that there may be out there that could be used to tie into our filemaker database. We have people who visit our customers to collect checks and such and it would be wonderful if they could maybe do things like mark the invoice paid from the remote location and perhaps even capture a signature. I've searched the net a bit but it's a long and winding trail with no place to start. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ron

Using IWP or CWP, any FMP database can be accessed through a web browser. Most phones have web browsers...
