What you guys think? I've had a Pilot 5000 (before it was called a Palm Pilot), and a Palm 3, have firneds with handsprings, and newer palms.
What you guys think is the best? Which one is the king of the crop?
Or not a PDA, but a Palmtop Computer? (BTW, I used one the toher day, an HP Jornada, and I hate them.) Their keyboards are too small (I have big fingers) and they dont' ahve a graffiti ability...

Check it out here (http://www.blackberry.net/). It's cool, I have one. You can get the Pocket Guenie (http://www.wolfetech.com/main/index.html) (internet) and all kinds of neat services on it.
I had a palm v and now have a palm 3 in a leather case if someone wants to buy it cheap. It is a friend of mines.
I found I had very little use for a palm pilot. My schedule is fairly simple =]

Read a review in some PC magazine...dont remember which... that compared the top PDAs... I believe that blackbarry got the worst review out of all of them if memory serves... have you used this or is that a guess Dave?

i own a palm V and i am extremely happy with the PDA. it's small, lightweight, and easy to use. i would like to see affordable internet access, but it's not that big of a deal. i've seen the blackberry in use and it seems pretty cool for people who need to constantly be connected to the web. the battery lasts all day and the browser is decent and cheap. i've heard the palm IX will blow everything out of the water, so we'll see.
