Re: Fwd: Phone Recommendations for DHIS2 Java Mobile Client

 

It's probably fine if I have to wait until the server issue is worked out.
I will not be using the phone for a real-world data collection, but rather
to familiarize myself with DHIS2 vis-a-vis the needs of our clients.

How can I reach Ben or Scott? We have two people in Zambia right now for
the UNDP Last Mile workshop.
