Kostas,
I had a period of noting down technical details of every shot I took.
I stopped doing that later, but it was (and in periods still is) a very
useful exercise.
A small notebook and a pencil is robust, convenient battery-independent, and
does not erase it's memory even if it gets wet. :-)

If your notebook is lot at hand when you shoot, how likely are you to keep a
PDA or a dictaphone at ready?

Take notes on whatever you find most convenient, there's no definite
standard.
To subsequently free yourself from the note-taking, look for patterns in the
way you do different subjects. Judging from my own experience, I'd say that
for similar subjects, you will find that you will tend to use the same
settings most of the time. Once recognised, it becomes easy to remember.

hth,
Jostein
