I carry both my Zire 72s and Sony Ericsson K750i with me whenever i go... Both are my essential companions for work as well as pleasure (games, MP3, taking pix, etc.)... And coupled with Bluetooth, this makes things a near perfect mix!

Too bad the Zire has no WiFi though...

er, I think this question has been answered gazillion times in this section.. nontheless, gps usage is free but u need to have gps receiver be it in SD, CF or bluetooth type.. to know more, visit www.wikipedia.com

Im using a O2 Mini as well as carry around my k800i

to be honest, without my Mini, my uni life would be crap . but now adays my psp takes up the spot where my o2 mini used to reside in

I'm newbies here...perhaps do u mind to show me some pic or link for clearer view??

generally i carry PPC, GSM phone, CDMA phone, Pager, or Analog phone.

Mainly for work~

I bought a 2nd hand PDA just for the fun of trying what's it like using a PDA. I would say it's tedious My PDA has been lying at home now

Well, looks like many of us middle-level managers and students here have PDAs eh... I only started using a handheld very "gao-gao" when i started work, to be honest... During student days (Palm III era), the handheld was mainly for taking short notes or timetable and most of the time, it was not heavily used... Which is why the AAA batteries can actually last a month!

In contrast, when it comes to working, usage really shot up and getting five days on a single charge is considered an achievement!

I'm using Dopod p100. Not the correct thread to discuss GPS. Last time when i was totally noob reagarding GPS, i opened a thread, and it was quite enlightening. U can find the thread here.

Anything else maybe can try PM me. dun wanna head people's thread offtopic

Lol, i'm very interested to use my PDA with the microsoft outlook. But never use outlook, and i use gmail all this while. so ma like that lor, else i sure use it. but dunno how to use.

I also use microsoft word for sometimes when i wanna write poetry

wahhh......u must be carry lotsa of gadget for ur backpack

Somebody prefer to have all-in-one device....I would like to know why about yours?your Z72s can't make call rite and at the sametimes no WIFI??Emm...then u must be pretty use it for gaming and manage schedule??

hohoho..don't worry..it's my thread...I didn't know GPS needs to have receiver....I tot it's provided by telco when u apply their service...maybe when the time I have PDA...then only I will consult from u...anyways, which PDA is worth of money at the moment?? Don't want to have 3G as I think if need 3G...it costs extra money for purchase and services....

haha.. interesting topic. at first, i swap my phone with my friend's ppc was just intend to gain girl's attraction, as i think it might makes me more impressive

actually not much attraction gained.. but i fell in love with it. yes, i use it as a schedule organizer, mp3 player, msn, encyclopedia, dictionary, remote control... and most importantly, i use it to check match results.

so this is how i love my ppc.

btw, i just finished my form 5, and i'm using hp h6365 ppcpe.. (old device.. wanted upgrade long time but no economy support..)

Well, it has no WiFi but for that, i have my trusty ThinkPad to keep me company ... But yups, the Z72s mostly for my schedule, tasks planner, memo jotter, dictionary, DocsToGo, and also for entertainment (games, music, camera)... At the same time, the SE phone is a backup to the Zire when it comes to other contact details as well as communicator...

I may consider getting an all-in-one device though, but not at this moment yet...

oh..iszit?!then which model is ur target???I'm at 1st looking forward to buy O2 XDA II mini S but then they said the model is not available here...so sad....i wanted to have that model..nice design with feature...any model which is similar to the model I mentioned or not?

Dopod 838 is the non-identical twin of XDA mini S

Well, i actually have no plans as yet... I'm happy with my current setup and i don't think i will be going for a PDa-phone for now...

I don't have a PDA phone. But I desire one, easy to keep reminders, appointments, notes, to-dos and surf the net while your gf is shopping for clothes Yes, all of these can be done with a simple PDA but its kinda hard to hold a PDA and a phone at the same time. So, its best to have an all in 1...PDA phone

Now, I have a PDA (gift). Like I said just now, its difficult to carry it around. Although the screen is bigger, nicer to surf on the net or view pictures...its also bulkier, can only fit into my back pocket

I also have a notebook...but its ridiculus to carry that around. So damn heavy only keep it at home, where is (quite) safe.

don't buy 02 Mini...I tried my cousin's...quite old model. Difficult to use. If you're gonna get a PDA Phone, get a new one or something.

let me see if i can put it in a nutshell.

imagine space. imagine hundreds of satelites floating in space. these satelites help detect where u are. thats GPS, Global Positioning Satellite.

Using GPS, is totally FREE. there is no telco, nothing. its just...u need something to access those satelites.

Some PDA has inbuilt GPS receiver, for those which dont, u need to buy an external GPS receiver lor. so got telco althose stuff wan

If still hard to imagine, think of GPS like BlUETOOTH. BLUETOOTH is a connection, no telcos right? but to use BLUETOOTH u need a bluetooth capable device. If your device not capable, u gotta buy a USB bluetooth doogle. like that lor, GPS .

My recommendation in terms of pricing and best buy, i say go for Dopod p100

got wi-fi, good size, in built GPS.

Now that u have an idea what GPS is and works, u need a software that has maps, to correctly place u on it. Cuz if u dun have software, just have the GPS part, sure, satelite can detect u, but then? so u need maps. These mapping software are the stuff u must pay. However, malsing maps are free maps u can get lor.

lol, i using k800i with dopod p100, which is not a pda phone. i prefer standalone pda. pda phone, battery finish faster.

I'm using O2 Atom and Nokia 6630 always carry this gadget everywhere i go use PDA for work and business
