| Folks, can anyone recommend a good PDA or Pocket PC that also doesn't cost the earth? I'm a bit of a PDA novice, so any recommendations of what I should be looking for would be welcome. |

Hey moose I agree with Crash here, but it will cost 3-4 times more than a PDA
have a look at this site

This is one of the best phones around...I was tempted but the damn things don't fit well in my 501's |

Look no further than the Palm T|X.
I have one and it is excellent - big screen, Bluetooth and WiFi for less than £200?
I will not have a "fancy phone", mainly because the mobile operators are gearing up to suck cash out of people who use data services - mobile browsing, IM etc. will be the biggest money sink going! Also, my employer doesn't allow cameras - for good reason - and it is becoming difficult to find mobile phones without cameras on certain tariffs. |
