I looked at a few; they're all pretty specialized.

Which is ironic, as my primary use for a database app would be my movies collection, but I still prefer a general app.

I don't think we should start with a relational DB, a good and fast flatfile data app would IMHO appeal to more users. fpp mentioned Portabase from the Zaurus, which I don't know, but looks good from the specs (http://www.killefiz.de/zaurus/showdetail.php?app=663). I've always liked the Psion's Data app (this guy has a good review of it: http://www.ericlindsay.com/epoc/bdata5.htm), but I'm flexible.

And grateful.

And not nagging at all.
