Hi Jockey,
Check out XSForms and XSDesigner by GrendaSoft - I use their database designer and forms tool to run a DB on the PPC for asset audits. They've done some work on barcode entry too, and you can either sync to Access DB via activesync (there's plenty of info about doing so on their forums), or simply export to XML or CSV file which you can then import into a database.
These apps are both currently free.

The best document editor

Is Documents to Go the best document editor for android? Or is QuickOffice?

For me I found the best document editor is "Polaris Office". Unfortunately until today I could not find the document apk to install it.
Anyu developers here could help?
I need the apk file to install it.
Thanks.

found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045522&highlight=polaris+office
But when I installed it on my Nexus1 it only lets me log in to a Box.net account to see docs I guess.
No GDocs settings, no way to create new documents.

The Google Docs app has been released, which may be a decent, powerful tool one day, but in this first version needs some polish. Has a great scan ability using your camera which, after some improvements, could be the ultimate feature.

[QUESTION] RSA SecurID or Similar

Has anyone found an RSA SecurID App or something similar to provide the same function under Android?

Good question. I look for one too but could not find an Android version yet. There is only 1 for iPhone .

The RSA SecurID Token for the Java ME Platform runs perfectly well on my HTC Desire (Android 2.1) phone.
(Sorry I am a new user so can't post the URL)
Got to RSA's web site.
Click Products on the menu
RSA SecureID
Product Family
Software Authenticators
Java Smartphones
You will need to convert your tokenseed to work with the app, but it is worth it.

Yup, confirmed. I have RSA running on my Hero (CM6), here's what I did.
Download J2ME app as per woffy's instructions above
Go to http://www.netmite.com/android/ and download the andme runner APK, and install
Go to http://www.netmite.com/android/srv/2.0/getapk.php and upload the JAD and JAR files from the RSA app you downloaded. An APK should be generated, load it onto your phone any way you want.
Get the token converted from the RSA website as well, and get your token file from the appropriate source. Then run tokenconverter.exe <filename>.sdtid -f. You should get a long numeric string.
Click import token in the RSA app, and enter the code from above
If all goes well, you should be able to enter your PIN and get a token.
Hope this helps someone, several of my coworkers and I have been waiting for this for months - we all got tired of carrying either fobs or our blackberries just to be able to remote in. One phone to rule them all!

what about the hardware securid
Is there a software for the hardware securid version?

This is what this thread is about.
But you need a special file to initialize the software, from the team of your company that manages the SecurID server and the hardware tokens.

Ho. I though there were 2 different products.
What would be the "technical term" for this file.
I don't want to sound stupid when I'll explain them this.
Thanks

According to this page, you need:
AES (128-bit) token seeds

Your security dept will need to have available soft tokens. Tell them to generate a Windows Mobile 128bit AES token file for you. You should receive a file with a .sdtid extension. Use that file with the token converter as described by whoiswes.
@wolfys: Nice find!
@whoiswes: Nice step by step writeup!
confirmed working on my DX...
edit:
You cannot use the sdtid file from an existing WM soft token btw. TokenConverter will blow up on a schema parsing error if there's a WM deviceID statement (generally the case when WM softtokens are assigned). Make sure the security dept. generates the WM token with a blank deviceID. Generally that means that they will have to unassign your existing soft token then re-assign it to you.

There is RSA SecurID beta app on the Market now http://www.appbrain.com/app/rsa-securid-software-token/com.rsa.securid

[Q] the best tablet for editing wordperfect documents

Help, I'm a lawyer who uses wordperfect (I know not many of us out there) and can't seem to find a tablet that will let me create, edit, convert back and forth from word to wordperfect, etc. Does anyone know if I can edit wordperfect files on an android tablet? On an I-Pad tablet? Or on a Windows based or Windows Based/ Android tablet like the ASUS EEETransformer? Any suggestions?

Also a lawyer and would love to see this happen. Corel should make an Android app.
Currently I use a txt based program. Which is fine you just copy and paste all the text and format later. But it would be nice to be able to finish the job on the Android app.
woops I shouldve searched google first....
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.corel.wordperfectviewer&hl=en
Its just a viewer though and 6.99 for just a viewer. weak.

WordPerfect viewer/editor on Android? For long-time WordPerfect users, it has been virtually impossible to read or write WPD files on an Android device. The only official option, thus far, has been the official and commercial Corel WPD viewer, but the user reviews have been mixed, to say the least.
This problem has prompted me to research and experiment, based on the fact that a free Windows MS Office-compatible suite like Libre Office [or Open Office, or Apache Office] has, for some time, had the ability to open WordPerfect files seamlessly [and save them, sometimes]. I formatted and saved a few basic WPD files, simply renamed the file extension to .ODT, and opened them in Libre Office – virtually perfectly [only experiencing importing issues with some complex tables]. Apart from that, formatting features like different fonts, graphics boxes, numbered outlining? No problem.
Then I proceeded to Android: I copied these test WPD files [simply renamed as ODT files, not exported as Open Office files, remember] to my device/cloud storage services like Dropbox and Google Drive. I installed a number of Open Office/ODT compatible office apps, and tried to open the "new" ODT files.
The best result so far [only been testing for the last 2 days] has come from OOReader [free via the Google Play store]. Opening a disguised WPD file as an ODT file takes a few seconds to convert, and – success! Almost every file I've tossed at OOReader has imported successfully, with WP formatting and graphics intact.
Interestingly, the official Libre Office viewer app [also the beta one] chokes on these FrankenFiles, as well as most other allegedly ODT-compatible office viewers and editors.
And so my 48-hour conclusion and advice are this: If you're a die-hard WPD user and would like to access your files on an Android device, follow these kludgy and hack-ey steps: (1) upload your WPD file AS IS to your device or the cloud; (2) install OOReader on your device; (3) when you need to do so, simply rename the WPD file to an ODT extension, and import into OOReader.
Savvy users might even write a batch script or CMD file beforehand which automatically renames or mirrors important WPD files as ODT files in one's PC Dropbox folder, which will save precious seconds when accessing that beautiful WPD data...
When (if) I find an app which can then also correctly and perfectly edit and save these hacked WPD-as-ODT files, a follow-up report will, well, follow.
