1. A mobile device comprising a screen, a data capture device, a device memory, and a data capture user interface comprising:
- functionality configured to invoke a data capture session for bundling data objects into a DataPack comprising a structured data collection at the mobile device;
data capture functionality configured to activate the data capture device for capturing, a plurality of captured data objects during the data capture session, wherein at least one of the plurality of captured data objects is newly acquired by the mobile device from a data source during the data capture session;
functionality configured to store the plurality of captured data objects in the device memory as associated with the data capture session;
at least one preview panel for only displaying a representation of the plurality of captured data objects associated with the data capture session for editing on the screen;
functionality configured to select at least one of the plurality of captured data objects in response to a user input at the user interface and bundle the selected at least one of the plurality of captured data objects into the DataPack at the mobile device; and
functionality configured to invoke assignment of a unique identifier on the mobile device during a data capture session to the selected at least one of the plurality of captured data objects to create the DataPack.

12. A method of capturing and displaying data on a mobile device, the mobile device comprising a device memory, a data capture device, a preview panel and a data capture bundling application, the method comprising:
-
(a) activating the data bundling application and opening a data capture session on the mobile device for bundling data objects into a DataPack comprising a structured data collection; (b) activating the data capture device in response to activation of the data bundling application; (c) acquiring, during the data capture session, a plurality of data objects using the data capture device and storing the data objects in the device memory as associated with the data capture session, wherein at least one of the plurality of captured data objects is newly acquired by the mobile device from a data source during the data capture session; (d) displaying, during the session, only the plurality of captured data objects associated with the data capture session for editing in a preview panel on the mobile device; (e) selecting at least one of the plurality of captured data objects for bundling into the DataPack in response to a user input at the user interface; (f) bundling the selected at least one of the plurality of captured data objects acquired by the data capture device to create the DataPack; and (g) assigning a unique identifier on the mobile device to the DataPack during the data capture session. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 24)
