What's your favorite PDA?
A few years ago I used a Palm m130 to keep my schedule. I liked it.
It was easy, quick and fit easily in my shirt pocket (looked a tad nerdy though.) Then it was stolen from my truck. Replaced it with a HP ipaq rx3115. I don't like it. I really don't need a hand held pc. It's just too much. I've thought of getting a "smart" phone but I like my old motorola flip and I'm concerned of the "too much" aspect. I'm about to go on ebay to buy another m130 and thought of asking you guys if you can convince me that there's a better solution for keeping a schedule digitally. |

I just use Microsoft Outlook and a Palm Pilot. The Palm is no frills. Heck, it's not even color, it's B/W. I don't even know which model it is. But it does the job, which is all I need.
My wife and I work for the same school system, so I share my Outlook calendar with her. She can pull it up from her desktop and know what nights I have games, clinics, meetings, etc. And I don't have to hear, "Where's yourgame tonight?" every morning that I walk out with my bag. Between Outlook and the Palm, I'm all set.

I never got around to synching up with Outlook. I should though, when I get my new gizmo. My wife too works for the same school district; same school actually, and would benefit from seeing my schedule when she has the urge.

I use a pocket PC...Dell Axim X5 (one of the first ones). It's held up very well and is more than I need (for what I use it for). It integrates well with outlook.

I use the Day Timer and outlook. I used a tugsten E at one time, but If you don't synch frequently and you loose the battery charge on the PDA, now you are SOL. Just a day timer works fine, Although lately I just print out my schedule from Arbiter..

I use the HP Jornada 720 PC, it is fully loaded with the latest Windows including Outlook, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OmniSolve, Windows Media Player, Internet Explorer, and Yahoo Messenger.

I use a fairly simple Palm Zire and sync it with Outlook both at home and at the office. This, in effect, gives me two "backups".

I use a Dell Axim as well and think it's great. I also use it for work quite extensivly. It's a Windows based OS and syncs up well with Outlook.

I've been using a Palm Zire 72 that I bought off CompUSA's auctions on ebay. I also have the mp3 thing going and a baseball scorekeeper program for my other sideline as a coach and interested parent.

I did not read Rainmaker's original post until just now and I still don't see where her post has anything to do with mine. It is not a matter of whether I have a sense of humor or not (I do have a sense of humor, just ask anyone), her comments about kittens and puppies have nothing to do with my post. MTD, Sr.
