Anyone really need one to "organize" their life?
I can't justify buying one yet.

Anyone really need one to "organize" their life?
I can't justify buying one yet.
I have the Tungsten E, provided to me from work. :D It helps me keep track of different projects we're working on and wheather I should go to work or on location sites. Also I use it keep track of tests and due dates. But if my work didn't provide one for me I wouldn't be able to justify $100-200 organizer.Quote:

Dell x3i and Ipaq 4155
i dont really use my PDAs as an organizer... more for entertainment and research
Okay, you're a College kid, right kp?
Why the HELL do you need more than one PDA?
Donate some to poor Sharkies.
I have an old ipaq with a busted backlight collecting dust.
The original Tungsten T.
Toshiba e310...few good ebooks, a nice substitute MP3 player with a large SD card, and it has Word and Excel and such.
Dell Axim X-5; I hate writing on paper. Useful certainly, but I can't say that I couldn't live without it.
I've an old Palm V, it was a hand-me-down from my brother in Japan. I originally asked for it since he was able to get it for free from a co-worker, and I thought it would come in handy for school since I just started college. After 2 semesters though, I've barely used it. I've found more use in my student planner book I bought than my Palm. I'm not sure why, as I'm a pretty tech-saavy kinda guy, I just never had the heart to bring it out during class to sloppily jot things down on it. I always found it muchos faster to just write it down in pen/pencil in my handbook.
Just my two cents.

I won a Palm VIIx in an online contest.
I use it nearly every day. It's great to sync up with Avantgo and download a bunch of webpages for the day. I get newspapers (USA Today, Washington Times, etc.), I get weather for the week, I laugh at daily jokes. It's great and saves me money on buying a newspaper for when I go out to lunch. I also use it to store addresses, passwords, and other notes. It's got plenty of games, I'm hooked on VEXED. I also play IR Pong with friends. But one of the best features is the Palm Acrobat Reader, by using Acrobat Distiller I can convert any document into a PDF and view it on my palm. FAQs, Game Guides, entire books can all be viewed.
i have an older 2mb palm zire and i use it to keep lists of passwords, phone numbers, and use it for planning and bad game playing on trips.
i can't afford a real pda...sorry.
I have a Palm VIIx hooked up to the OBDI port in my 3000GT. :)
A friend sold me his Sony Clie PEG-SJ20/U FOR $50 (including carrying case). I haven't used it at much as I thought, but I prefer to be able to edit a friends phone number instead of scrathing the old one and putting the new one on bottom on my agenda. I also use it to write when school papers are due. Also a To Do list where I would forget to write it down later if I didn't have any paper or a pen at hand, but even if I did have paper and pen ready, you'd be wasting 90% of the paper to write 2 sentences. You could reuse the paper, but you could also lose it.
Good call on that! I just downloaded and tried it out, now I'm hooked. So hard, even though in low level! Haha, thanks for the link.Quote:

Some of the map packs are insanely impossible. I'm stuck on one that has 43 moves to it. I just can't think that much ahead. I go back to the "kids" pack just so I feel like I'm accomplishing something.Quote:

PDAs = huge waste of money unless you need it as a professional imo (why not just get a gba if you want to play games on it?):p
I can't store info, read books, or download websites into a GBA. :pQuote:

Alright, well I said for games. . .I suppose I'll allow this one exception ;) :p Reading books sounds kind of cool. I'm def. going to seriously consider one when I have a real job :/Quote:
