Help!

I'm fairly good at organising the business side of life.  I file my bank statements, pay my bills and know where to find my passport

I used to have that problem, but since getting a PDA I find I automatically put it all on that.
Actually, I do also have a folder in the filing cabinet called "Creations" for the occasional things like that which either predate the PDA, were made when I didn't have access to it for some reason, or are in a format that works better on paper.

I keep thinking I want a PDA, but despite it being a very long time since I first had a PDA (I had a Windows CE 1.0 greyscale PDA!), they're all still quite expensive (i.e. >£100 for one that isn't completely crappy) :-/

I should have held on to the three (!) PDAs I had but gave away!

I am hoping to get a new one soon, and you can have mine if you want, although it may be "completely crappy" depending on your definition. It's a 4-year-old Windows Mobile one and the battery only holds half what it claims to.

Don't you want to sell it?

What model is it?

[woodpijn]

Not convinced anyone would buy it.

Orange SPV M2000. Alex (or probably Google) can tell you which HTC model that corresponds to.

Oh well - if you gave me that I'd be very happy. I think it's something like the updated version of the phone I gave to railwaymouse

I want a Psion PDA, but made with modern technology (so: higher-resolution screen, more memory, faster CPU ... er, that might actually be all I'd change). I had -- no, still have -- a pretty decent Palm, but I found that the absence of a keyboard made it an order of magnitude less useful, and I basically never use it. Perhaps some sort of netbook might be the answer, but the trend seems to be for those to get bigger rather than smaller (apart from a couple of absurdly expensive models). Alas.

What about this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psion_netBook ?

If they were still making those and had brought up to date those things that could easily be brought up to date, I'd be bloody tempted. As it is: er, no.

I used to have a neat folding keyboard. It folded down to PDA size, but when unfolded it was full size and you could slot a PDA into it at near-vertical, like a screen.

Sadly, I have no idea where it is.
