Great software; I've used it, and have a number of construction clients who are very happy with it. www.f2bms.com Sounds a lot like Field2Base for tablet PCs.

Also a tablet PC based punchlist and sounds very similar to Finishline but might be more robust of an application. Have any looked at Latista system.

We have produced the majority of your specifications into our PunchList application FinishLine. www.punchlist.net. Currently our solution is not yet to the smart phone level but on a tablet pc. All data and drawings are stored on a central server and field staff collect the data online or offline and sync to the server if conditions require. Ultimately until they solve wireless signal issues (Wifi, Cellular or otherwise) in the 3rd level basement electrical room of a building at 60% completion with concrete and steel walls, floor and ceiling, practicality calls for a offline and sync solution which is beyond the smart phone capability for now. We are working on a smartphone module specifically for "lite" situations and for back check inspection. Thanks for the great article. Interesting and I believe great minds think alike.

My biggest concern is would the app be able to cross multiple operating systems for mobile phones. I use a Blackberry, but I know contractors who use iPhones, Windows based phones, and now with the Palm Pre out the use of many different smart phones on one project is not only probable, but likely. I really like the idea, and have always embraced using ways to "work smarter, not harder" as my father taught me. Looking forward to hearing more about it!

Although we're teaching our clients how to have a zero punchlist. But, the vast majority of builders aren't learning. Still, I'll tweet and blog next week. Very nice!
