Simon, 


the objective is to offer to people in the field more flexibility, with offline maps, facility to both take notes, take measures and edit OSM.  I dont think that Vespucci isadapted to non techie people.

IMHO is is difficult to see a reason to just move the field paper
      model to a tablet if you actually have tablet plus infrastrusture
      at least at your base camp available. Why not use Vespucci and
      forget about trying to transform something that works great on
      paper to some where it is rather silly.

Some propositions were made last summer to develop a Field Paper Application on a tablet.
