PDA Advice
Does anyone have advice on purchasing a PDA?
I am in the market for a pda, but I am not sure what to get.
I found an "HP iPaq 2215 Pocket PC," a "Sony PEG-SJ30," a "Sony Clie PEG-SJ33 Handheld PDA," and a "Palm Tungsten E2 Handheld PDA."
I am interested in getting one of these, but I do not know which is a better deal...
My budget is near $150, so I have to keep it below that.

Re: PDA Advice
Personally I prefer Pocket PC to Palm, but it pretty much boils down to personal preference. I'd say go with the iPaq, or look into the Dell Axim series. I've owned two Dells, an HP and a Palm and I've never had a problem with any of them, I just prefer the Pocket PC OS. Although the power, battery life and cost was the best with the Dell was the best hands down.

Re: PDA Advice
The HP, to me, looks good at 119. The sj30 is $50, and the sj33 is almost $100 more than the sj30.

Re: PDA Advice
First ask yourself what you need it for. These days, cell phones do the majority of the tasks PDAs used to, and PDAs are slowing being phased out. It might be a better idea to get a smartphone instead, may even be cheaper than the PDA if you were to renew your cell contract with it.

I could get a blackjack, but I do not have the money to access the net through it... unlike certain pda models I like that have bluetooth and wifi.
