Hi,

I have had experiences with many PDA's. I have owned 2 types of casios( Casio E-125 etc) and 2 Toshibas ( E310, E740) I also own 2 Compaqs (3670, 3850).

All in all I Conclude that the best PDA out of these was the Compaq models from the 3800's and up. Go check out this site for a review!

If you have any questions Email me at davnayanch@hotmail.com

Good luck!

My company also has had great success with the HP/Compaq iPaq. We use the 3800 series and 3900 series. Good business apps, and you can play mp3/wma's as well...for training...yeah training.

Go to Amazon.com and read the reviews there of the different PDA's. I found that very helpful.

Don't bother with them. Unless you want COM port NIGHTMARES.

Evaluated PDA's for business use for some time. None of them allow easy and secure dialing in to cy's networks.
For PDA-apps iPAQ is the brightest. Have a look at the Nokia 9210. It saves a mobile purchase. And Symbian OS will win I assume.

The simplist and most cost effective everday PDA is the casio PV660
This is a basic monchrome unit
It allows fast copy and paste of any data
Syncs with Outlook
Syncs Excel
Has a very secure user interphase
Uses 2 x aaa replacable battries up to 180 hrs
For the average person who does not need email live its a perfect rugged machine
Emails can be copy and pasted using the memo facility and then when synced with desktop addressed and posted via the desktop
