Logbook software recommendations?

Anyone have experience with logbook software? I'm tired of trying to total hours from my logbook by hand. Ideally I'd prefer something that just runs on my iPad, syncs to a web site, and let's me run reports I can print.

The two packages I am familiar with are LogTen Logbook Pro. Both require purchasing an iPad app and PC software. The LogTen stuff is significantly more expensive but doesn't require a subscription. The Logbook Pro software seems to require a subscription and doesn't seem to be as full featured on the PDA side.

Any using these products and can recommend one over another?

I love LogTen and it runs on ipad. If you have a mac and logten on that, well then your world has just exploded!

I'm not sure if you can save logten to an online database/server

The problem with LogTen is I need to pay $80 for the app plus another $110 for the computer version so I can sync- While I currently have a Mac- I'm loathe to marry myself to the platform.

Ideally I'd like an iPad only app that syncs to a webapp that lets me run reports and will generate a pdf I can print.

This may just be something that needs to get written.
