How to Compare PDA's
A PDA (personal data assistant) can be an important investment. Price is not the only issue facing a PDA shopper. One must also be concerned with features, as a PDA may become integral to one's daily life and functioning. As such, before making a final decision, one must first be sure to compare PDA's carefully.
Any time one is purchasing an electronic item, the popular Latin expression "caveat emptor" should come to mind. The phrase, translated as "buyer beware," reflects the reality of the marketplace. One cannot trust that any given purchase will truly meet his or her needs or that any product in a category will be satisfactory. The electronics market is littered with sub-par products that are strongly hyped and sold on the strength of misleading or inaccurate marketing. PDA's are not an exception to this rule. There are many options available, and they are not all of sufficient quality. That is why it is essential to carefully compare PDA's.
How can one compare PDA's? The key is identifying multiple possibilities that fit within one's desired price range and then evaluating their features and qualities carefully to guarantee a satisfying purchase. As much as most of us would like to avoid extensive research and would prefer to simply pick "something" quickly, knowledge is power and a quality strategy to compare PDA's can go a long way in avoiding disappointment.
One should start by formulating a list of the features they require in a PDA. The importance of each feature should also be noted, as some may be more critical than others. This may seem to be an unnecessary step. However, unless a careful list is constructed, one may overlook a particular PDA's deficiencies or strengths while shopping. It is also possible to accidentally overlook a desired feature while he or she compares PDA's--an error often not realized until it is too late. After assembling the feature list, one may then determine their budge for the purchase.
At this point, one should begin the hunt for an objective source of information that provides an in-depth look at the various features and options present in a wide array of PDA's. Optimally, one will avoid relying upon sources that offer biased perspectives. For instance, a manufacturer's website will probably do its very best to avoid mentioning areas of weakness, instead focusing on a PDA's strengths. In order to compare PDA's accurately, a more factual recitation of attributes is necessary.
One may then begin to compare PDA's one by one, looking at each model that falls within the desired price range closely and noting which desired qualities it possesses and which it lacks. After assessing the PDA's, the most clearly desirable candidates should be readily apparent.
Choosing a PDA can be a confusing process. However, by taking an informed and organized approach to finding the model that best meets one's needs, the matter can be simplified a great deal. If one is willing to compare PDA's based on a predefined list of desirable characteristics, conducted with budgetary restrictions in mind can help lead to a wonderful buying experience and will result in the purchase of PDA that will perform all necessary functions in a way that makes organization and scheduling a joy. Anyone in the market for these amazing tools simply must make the effort to compare PDA's before making a purchase.

As long as both devices have bluetooth, it should be able to connect.
There is also a nice little software tool call WMWifiRouter which will allow you to use you Wifi enable phone to act as a Wifi Access Point (sorta of, its adhoc not infrastructure) to any Wifi Enabled device.
It is even more simple than using the built in ICS modem feature. You install the WMWifiRouter software, turn on Wifi, launch the WMWifiRouter Software click connect and it does all the internal connections for you, and now you have your own little wifi access point where ever you have cell phone service.
I use this with my HTC Mogul with sprint al you can eat service and it works like a dream. i downloaded it from here

a pda is used mainly ny peoplw who have their own bizness or have alot of on the move stuff they have to do at work like if you are on a plane ging somewhere for work and an important client sends you an email you can check that stuff via your pda. You can do just about anything on a pda they are basically small computer and phone put into one. You can get a PDA at any cell phone store it is just a high end cell phone. PDAs do do texting so you are ok there to be honest you sound young and you probaly dont need a pda just a phone if you dont know what it does yet then learn first remember gotta crawl before you walk They usually run ne where from 200 to 600 bucks

How can any BSB fan not like this song? It’s awesome! It’s smooth and sexy and has a solid flow. And really, what’s wrong with a bit of raunchiness??
It’s not the best on the album but it’s a cool and fun song!

My father is a doctor and I have some expertise in this area (see my blog at http://mlearning.edublogs.org). You should look for a PDA that does not have a slideout keyboard, and a minimum number of hard-key buttons. Minimising moving parts like this reduces the number of crevices that can potentially become contaminated with infectious substances, if you're using the device in the course of your work, and also simplifies cleaning of the device.
I'd recommend a Windows Mobile device, since Palm is rumoured to be currently undergoing corporate transition and software for its OS may be discontinued if PalmOS is not supported in future. Also, most of the medical PDA software out there is supported by the Windows Mobile operating system.
With those considerations, I would normally have recommended a Dell Axim x51v . The Dell x50v and x51v PDAs have the best screen (480×640px gorgeousness!) and processor speed (624 MHz) I've yet experienced in a PDA. While they don't have a massive amount of internal memory, they accept both SD and CompactFlash cards, and that means you could for example, add a 4GB CF card for your medical applications and records, as well as a 4GB SD card for your music – that would be 8GB in total, plus the 128MB on-board storage – a massive amount of memory for a PDA. I believe there are even larger memory cards in both formats available, if you're willing to put up the dollars.
The only reason I might not fully endorse the x51v is that Dell won't be making any more PDAs after the x51v; however, it will continue to support its existing models.

iPhone.
Or windows:
HTC phones.

any chance that you also backed up your Palm data to an SD card with such a program but forgot about it?
Otherwise, keep in mind that only password protected records will only get wiped out if you reset your password. I don't think there's anyway around that since the password mechanism was designed to wipe and protect data in the event the password couldn't be provided.

The "customs" value the site refers to is … "how much $$ is it worth"?
If you want insurance to cover against loss or damage, you have to go REGULAR PRIORITY INT'L or EXPRESS INT'L …
… First Class Parcel Int'l or Small Flat-Rate Priority at $12.95 offers NO insurance at all …

Very, very, very good!!!

For me it has to do with the fact that I tend to have too many lists, calendars, notebooks, address books and general notes and/or papers to keep track of.
The PDA is way too expensive to lose track of and it keeps all my information in one place! I love the idea of setting alarms to remind me to do things during the day!
At the present time, technology allows us to do so much more than ever before and this will, of course, become more true as time goes on. There are also a lot of extra benefits of having a PDA such as the capabilities of listening to music, keeping photos, videos and much more. Also, depending on the model and how much you want to spend, you could have the capability of accessing the internet with your PDA.
And…let's not forget the choice of having a PDA phone?! Talk about efficient!
You may not know NOW exactly what a PDA can do for you but I'll bet you wouldn't regret getting one.
Having said that…if you are not into computers and/or electronics at all, you may want to stick with the paper idea.

Your PDA device will have some sort of data access unless you requested for it to be blocked by Verizon. The options are as follows:
Unlimited data connect – $44.99
10 MB of data per month – $24.99
Pay-as-u-go data connect – $0.015 per KB of usage
Minutes and text/pix messaging use would be the same otherwise.

The current rating on the new power supply of 1.5 amps means it can be loaded up with higher batteries.
No you will not fry your PDA. And there is now worry on the PDA getting damaged due to just a change in higher current rating. A higher voltage rating would mess your PDA.
Here is an analogy…
Imagine current as the flow of water in a pipe, a 1amp to 1.5 amp means you have higher flow of water.
The 5volts is your pail. This means you want to fill up you pail with 5volts of water. Using the 1.5 amp supply – higher flow of water, you will fill up the pail faster. It does not damage the pail but it fills it up faster.
The only time you would damage your PDA is when you over charge it, which means you keep it plugged in even when the charge light already said it is fully charged. But in better PDA's this should not be a problem since the charger circuit has an overcharge and temp overload protection circuit. It just makes you battery life shorter due to overheating the battery.
