I think the Cuban side of the existing database is pretty complete (maybe 90 - 95% ?). What would be great is somebody verifying what is there, and identifying errors. Always a big manual chore.

I'm thinking through how to push out updates to the iPhone/iPod users now. The update mechanism for apps is easy, but the database part will be a little bit tricky, since people will likely have added some of their own to the reference side. Also, personal inventory is keyed to a unique identifier for each cigar, so I can't just change them around. It's an interesting puzzle for sure. We'll get there though
