Wife needs new PDA quick.
Need big color screen and Pocket PC OS. Don't think she needs wifi or BT. Any recommendations? thanks |

Lots of guys where I used to work like the Dell for the money - Pocket PC OS.
Personally, I like my Treo - combined phone and PDA and it has unlimited internet access through T-Mobile. 1 device instead of 2. |

You didn't give a price range.
You don't think that you want WiFi, but you do. The one slot that you get in these things becomes valuable real estate. Most of the newer devices have this built in anyway. If I was going to buy one today, I'd look at the HP (Hewlett-Packard) iPAQ hx4705. 624MHz, 128MB, SD/MMC Card/Compact Flash. Nice 4" screen as well. |

And I thought this was going to be about Public Display of Affection. Which I feel if your comfortable with it go for it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif)

I use an IPAQ and am fairly happy with it. Only problem is if you let the battery totally drain down..you have to reinstall your user apps/data (goes back to the initial load)

I would add a second vote for the IPAQ. Have been using an IPAQ for several years now - easy to use, very durable (slid off the roof of the teener and have dropped more than once), bright screen and their prices are pretty good.
Have tried the Blackberry and Palm but found them less intuitive. Also had a Handspring for a short time but ended up returning as never worked right. Good luck with your purchase |
