Disclaimer -- my company wrote this product -- http://www.productionmanuals.com/. We wrote it for making manufacturing documentation easier, but I've been using it to document the product itself. It's a lot easier to use than word or acrobat for actually getting things written down, and since it keeps everything in one place you never lose it.
Is something like that useful for your situation?
