I'm missing something. Why can't you use checkboxes?
It would seem to me that you ought to group these items and only show one
group (whatever will fit on the screen) at a time before letting the user go
on to the next group. Is there a natural grouping? But even without
grouping, what's wrong with a bunch of checkboxes in a scrolled view?
