A project is underway to make Workbooks easily accessible from Mobile devices.
In Q3 we will deliver the first of several releases. This release will be an online interface for users of Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) and users of recent Android devices to access and update data in Workbooks using a ‘native’-style user interface.
Subsequent releases will widen device support (e.g. to include BlackBerry 6 OS and Android tablets) and will eventually deliver an ‘offline’ capability.

Please feel free to contribute further to this idea.
We will provide further updates as this idea / feature request progresses.

@Tim Crook. In the Person ‘show’ screen we are going to allow you to ‘Copy to local Contacts’ which will mean you can locate a set of People (e.g. using the ‘Watched’ flag or by name) and then choose to copy individual records to your phone where they will be available whether you are online or offline.
Full synchronisation can already be achieved if you are an Outlook user and your iPhone syncs with Exchange: install and configure the Workbooks Outlook Connector. More direct sync – of iPhone Contacts directly with Workbooks via the Mobile client – is not currently planned.

@Brian We will look to support Windows Phone 7 however the schedule depends on how Microsoft progress with it. WP7 is fairly new and currently the OS is in a start of flux with a new browser being rolled out on it shortly – ‘Mobile IE9’.

Note: This was delivered in the Summer 2011 release on 2nd September.
“We are making improvements to the Template functionality offered by Workbooks. This will allow you to define a template that can generate either a Workbooks Note or Email record, or a Google Docs document.
Templates will make use of field placeholders / tags e.g.
first_nameand output the value into the Workbooks Note or Email record, or the Google Docs document. In addition to using fields in the record itself you can also generate multiple sections corresponding to Line Items for example those within an Order or Quotation.Once generated, you can share the Google Docs document, restrict access, or allow others to collaborate and make changes. A web link / URL to the document is retained in the Notes tab."

@Raquel, @Anonymous – we are intending to release this before the end of this month.
@Alex – Modern Blackberries, running OS6 and later, are expected to work. If you can contact us I will pass you a URL if you would like to try things out. Older Blackberry devices will, unfortunately, not work.
