I haven't done it, as I am terrible with keeping track of this information,
but I have a PocketPC (Windows Palm-like machine) that has both Pocket Excel
and Pocket Access. Seems like I could build something to capture this info
pretty quickly and you can easily sync it to your laptop too.
I really like mine. Instant on. Easy to use. Great character recognition. I
can even record voice notes on it or use it as an MP3 player. I also have a
plug-in attachment that makes it a great GPS system in the car. Enter your
destination address and it does step by step routing, speaking each turn to
you.
Laugh if you want :) but I like it.
