Have you gone so paperless that you cache with a smart phone?  I used my 
Blackberry and use a couple of aps there.  Cacheberry allows you to add a field 
note and mark the cache Found, DNF, Needs Maintenance, etc.  Those are built by 
importing GPX files.  I also use Trimbles Geocaching Navigator.  That allows me 
to send a note to GC.com that the cache was found but doesn't allow "in the 
field" notes.  It is good when you're out and about and find a nearby cache 
that you didn't have in the GPX.  When that happens, I go to the last one I 
found and edit the Cacheberry field note to include the extra cache.  From  
Cacheberry, you can email yourself the Field notes which makes logging easy.

Subject: [GeoStL] Paperless question

Thanks to the great effort of Flatkatz, there are 2 more environmentally 
friendly paperless caches.
 
However, I have a question.  I am using a Garmin Nuvi for the cache 
information.  Is there a way to input a "find" on a cache on the Nuvi?  How do 
I keep track of the caches I have done on the Nuvi.  I do have a netbook with 
GSAK and if I had that I know I can change the "color" to yellow for a find.  
But there is the chance I won't have the netbook with me.
 
Thank you for any suggestions.
