For those of you with PDA's (PocketPC or PalmOS) what do you use it for?

Well, I use mine for tons of stuff, mostly the obvious, contacts, calendar, etc.

I also store a ton of docs on it. Refs for me for Network setups at work, IP addresses, sometimes trade deals I have going on, things like that.

I also use it to read the news with AvantGo and Mazingo.

Currently I'm working on getting some monitoring/management software for it, which will work wirelessly, and let me reboot our webservers while I'm sitting out on lake Washington partying on a yacht. (yeah, right)

About the club thing, some friends of mine started up a group, and I'm hoping it gets bigger because we've had some good presenters and stuff show up at the meetings, you can check it out at www.pshug.org. It's based in the Seattle area, but there is a (very low traffic) forum, and you can get on the e-mail list. Hopefully we'll get enough people eventually to help each other out with problems and stuff. Note that the site is a work-in-progress and the January meeting date hasn't been posted yet. It's like the second or third week in January I think.

And if anyone wants to buy a Jornada 548.... I'll be letting it go in the next week or so when I get my iPAQ.

Anyone with links to good sites with Palm/Visor goodies? freeware and such would be great
I just recently picked up a Visor Deluxe and was hoping to get some fun stuff on it. AvantGo is
great. I use that and just started synching email and address book info to it. I guess I'm in that
"wonder" stage and having fun with it as a novelty before the high wears off.

I'd like movie listings on this thing but when I tried to customize a page on avantgo from citysearch.com, it looked
pretty ghetto..wish I knew how to script -- I'd pirate the info and format it on my own webpage better suited
for mobile reading

anyway, it will most likely end up as a gift to my father to replace his sony personal organizer.. But like someone
said before, the important part is integrating it into your life. These things are getting smaller and better every
month.. Soon, I might have to consider an iPaq to replace my notebook since most of my major work is done on a desktop
anyway
