Hi Rael,
That what I initially thought as well. But, it seems there are a number of issues relating to the ability to export data from Evernote, and until I get a clearer answer on that, I am considering other options.

P.S. Right Note seems like a nice app. Its a shame that smartphones cannot really support that type of application.

After a bit more searching, I am now more confused about Evernote. Does its current PC client software allow for export into a commonly recognized format?

Yes, you can export notes in HTML format.

Thank you for the clarification. I am assuming that exporting is only possible with the PC client software, and is not available if you are just using the web interface.

Ken,
Since a couple of weeks I also have an Android phone and I have seen the amount of software available is quite impressive. Coming from the Symbian world I find that Android apps are still quite simplistic, but the development rate is much faster.
One app I would consider is Memento http://luckydroid.com/ It is a simple database that can sync with Google Apps (spreadsheets). It has some ready templates for popular uses, but you can also customise fields as you like.
Re Evernote, even though the Android client was recently updated http://blog.evernote.com/2010/08/11/evernote-for-android-update/ it still doesn’t work offline—though this is expected to change in the near future. Indeed, you won’t be able to export via the web app, only from the desktop.
