Downloading (or deciding) what to print is rather bandwidth intensive and the mapper needs to plan his route in advance. And without scanning & QR codes it simply isn't "Walking Papers" as demo-ed at SOMT09. Recording tracks and waypoints with a simple receiver and a notebook, then editing with JOSM is pretty good. I did thousands of streets this way on a 256 MB notebook. Perhaps use a map capable receiver so that you can see what's already on the map. And if you want to capture the info digitally in the field, give gosmore a try.
