Trimble offers Android Outdoors application

Does any other map ap allow you to make waypoints? If not then this is pretty interesting. I'm administering a national field study and we are using GPS to collect data. We also use cameras to collect advertising information and that needs to be georeferenced. A GPS that does this would cost $500+

I suggested iPhone but am more comfortable with Android. We'd need about 20 of them but my point is that it's better to have 1 device that acts as a data collection tool and communication tool. Plus field staff would be away from the office for months so the ability to use 3/2G would be pretty big.

Waypoints are a big issue when expanding mapping tools in this capacity.
