Amy, We were in the same boat -- III library, interest in a mobile catalog, didn't want to pay III for AirPAC -- last year. We wound up rolling out VuFind as our "beta catalog" this year, which got us a mobile catalog as part of the package -- as of version 1.0 VuFind has a mobile interface. If you're in the market for a next-gen catalog-type-thing as well, you might be able to kill two birds with one stone.
