From the time that Rockwell created the Tripmaster On-Board computer to now, it has been a struggle to get to a paperless logbook. There was no wireless in those days and secure digital signatures. The system was secure but still required the logs to be manually signed to be valid. Now that Verigo has been able to develop a paperless logbook solution on a personal data organiser/ cell phone it would certainly make this a personal logbook and with the ability to have signature capture on screen it has come a long way from the tripmaster solution. Even if a driver does not sign it in his own hand writing it should be accepted if he is required to logon before been able to use the application on the device. Its a digital signature that should be accepted as long as the data once entered and signed off must stay safe. Anysubsequent modification will be highlighted on the form on the device or when transmitted over the air to the hosting site.
