Just because I was wondering, how many of us own a real PDA or Pocket PC (thus not smartphoness)? Which one do you own and do you like it? Which one would you like to have?

I own a Dell X50, although I don't use it much anymore. I prefer to either write crap down on paper, or just put it on my iPod.



Awesome looking thing though.

I have a HP 4150, used it for emulators, music, web browsing, watching films, Quake and note taking. For the last year and a half it has lain in my drawer with a shattered screen after I played pool with it in my pocket. It was in the protective case and everything. I could easily fix it, but in all honesty I can't be bothered. It's worth about five pence now and every other device I have does what it did better.

After seeing the heavy use mine got, my brother ( 7 years old at the time ) asked for one for his birthday. I asked him what he intended to use it for. He replied "Agent things" and so it lies in the drawer a year on unused.

I've had the Ipaq rx1950 great small little device! Awesome battery life, maybe a little to underpowered though. After about 3 years I changed over to a top-of-the-line Dell Axim X51v. That was a true wonder, but the battery sucked! I sold it after about three months lol!

Now I'm back to my ipaq with an extended battery, which like gives it enough juice for heavy usage for a week! I use it mainly for to-do lists, word and excel viewing, anime watching and if I'm bored bubble breaker!

I have a Sony Clie, haven't used it in a while. Used to use it in college. it has a camera so used to film stuff in between classes. Mostly used it for playing solitaire though.
