I have a small dilemma

Over the past two days, I made a little over $100 selling those DellF coupons. My original intent was to get the 25% off Axim x50v coupon, which I have plenty of, but now, I don't know if I want it anymore.

I also wanted to buy a PS2 this holiday season, but now that Gran Turismo 4 is delayed again, I don't think I'm going to buy it this year.

Also, I don't know if I deserve a pda. I use planner right now, but most of the time, I write stuff down, but I forget to look at it the next day. I don't want the PDA to become useless after awhile.

The other half of me really wants to buy it because of the price. I managed to get it down to:

$499 Base price...
$375 After 25% off, Tax, and $25 off 150...
$250 (Using all the money I made from coupons)

So in the end it'd be $250, but my bank, only has like $620ish. It'd take a hard hit, but I think I should go up after christmas too.

What should I do?
Thanks to anyone that puts in a word. :)

Wait till you feel that you will be using the PDA enough to justify the cost

I've found most who have them don't really "need" them, it's just a nice thing to have because it gives a color screen. Personally, I stick with a planner even though we have a nice Ipaq at home I could use. Oh, and planners don't use batteries, have to be charged, or cost a lot to be replaced if you lost them

On the other hand, if you see yourself using it a lot, then it's worth the money
