You may want to check out FMTouch for FileMaker. It supports FileMaker with syncing via wifi, filemaker databases served remotely, and databases hosted on filemaker server.

It also supports FileMaker 9-11 and has already been tested on the iPad. You can see screenshots of it running on the iPad at the FMTouch website.

Also the enterprise license allows Filemaker developers to instantly convert their databases into applications that can be sold on the iTunes App store.

Hope this is helpful.

Totally Daniel, an iPad version is a requirement at this point

Now that FileMaker 11 is out, I figured I’d check out this article again. Well, the included graph support proved to be right on, however, I’m gonna assume that’s a lucky guess since we haven’t seen an iPhone client. I suspect, though, that FileMaker probably will have to develop an iPad client at some point if it catches on in business. A Bento client for the iPad would be nice, too. (You could probably have an actual layout, as opposed to a scrolling list.)

i agree w larry. “full version” would mean relational, all UI widgets, design not just runtime capabilities and so on. “filemaker for iphone” could be just as weak as fielmaker mobile was: limited widgets, limited sync (to standalone, not to hosted solution), limited limited limited. i’ll stick with servoy, this rumor about fm 11 puts me to sleep

Maybe I’m missing it, but where in that blurb does it say anything about a full Filemaker app for the iPhone?
