There is an actual APRS app for the iphone called "PocketPacket". By
"actual" I mean one that actually squawks and decodes audio packets:
the TNC and modem are done in software on the iphone, so no external
TNC hardware is needed. It's $4.99. So to my mind, PocketPacket plus
a cable between your iphone and a small 2-meter HT and you've got the
smallest, cheapest portable APRS station with a smartphone UI.
Disclaimer: I have not used PocketPacket (hope to play with it this
weekend, in fact); reviews on the apple store indicate that it's still
in development and has bugs and missing features, blah blah.<br>

makes the Tiny Trak series of TNCs. They have several dumb tracker
solutions on various PCBs. The radio from the 10w AIO, a TT3 or 4 TNC,
and someone to write an apple store app would make the smallest
solution i've been able to think of.<br>
