Ok was looking at a sony clie, but thought that I should also look at the windows side of the pda's. I've used palm before (over 4 years ago), but because it's been awhile and as such so much has changed, I'd like feedback as to what these new generation of pda's can actually do. Some of the basic things I'm looking for it to do is: datebook, expense tracking, spreadsheets, and notepads as a start. Like I said, I'm sure there are more things I can use them for but am clueless right now as to what those are. So if anyone can tell me more benefits/conveniences current pda's provide, I'd greatly appreciate it. If there are no real benefits (other then wi-fi and bluetooth- although wi-fi would be cool, but I'd rather surf the web on my laptop) then I might as well save my money and buy a used/refurb'd older model. Thanks.
