Well, the screen size isnt the issue. OziExplorer does the job great, however it uses its own proprietary formats for trace and POI files, which means I have to do a conversion to use them. OziExplorer is also commercial software, so while using the free version Im limited to 20min traces. Im not even thinking of adding names to streets so far (although that would be a future goal), but being able to say 'this is a crossing' or 'this is a turning circle' while creating the tracks would be very useful. I understand Ill most probably have to use my main PC to finish off the data before uploading it, however if nodes are already half tagged, this makes the at-home job a lot easier.
