I'm looking for a PDA w/ Wireless LAN (WiFi) capabilities. Not sure whether to insist on having WiFi integrated, or consider cheaper models and add WiFi separately (via SD add-on card)?
What I'm looking for:
Color display quality: I've read reviews about the next 480x640 vga displays, but sounds like they're slated for mid/late 2004, and they come w/ their own problems: power consumption, and size. It looks like 240x320 are about average for pda's.
Web browsing/email: From what I've read, PPC may be a little better. But, since I haven't browsed the web on a PDA before, not sure whether it'll suck or just be OK.
Here are some of the models I'm considering:
HP iPAQ 4155: like the integrated Wi-Fi, not sure if I'll ever use bluetooth. Average screen, power consumption.
Palm Tungsten T3: 320x480 screen, which probably makes a big difference in viewing experience. need separate Wifi card.
Toshiba e405: Average features, need separate Wifi card. less pricey than 4155.
Dell Axim X3i: Average features, integrated Wi-fi.
Any other models worth considering? I've been using my Handspring Visor for the past 4/5 years (since they first came out), and considering an upgrade
Thanks!
