Your ultimate aim should be for the docs to finish the chart in the room before they leave. So I would vote for setting up a system now that would allow for this. Laptops are getting cheaper. I favor one in each exam room and forget about hauling it around with you. If you have a vitals station, set one up there for all the MAs to use. Otherwise, the MAs chart on the room laptops as they room the patient.
