Can you suggest a solution?

Hi, I am looking for a Car Inventory application. We provide inventory. inspections to some 50 car dealers in Puerto Rico. Right now our inspectors use Laptops but they are cumbersome to use in the field. Plus, they break down a lot because of exposure to the elements.
I need a solution that can track car mileage, color, VIN etc and a few customized fields. If a barcode reader can be adapted to read the car's VIN number even better.
I don't care too much about the hardware platform as long as its stable and durable.
Thanks for your help

Everthing you are asking for is possible. You could write the applet or have it written. THe best database for the work is HanDBase. Check out their site DDHsoftware. Email them for information specific to their product and your need, mention the barcode. David Haupert the owner is very interested in supporting enterprise uses of HanDBASE.
You will like working with them. By the way they are in the Ft. Lauderdale area of Florida.
