I've been looking at the Palm Z22. I'm a sys admin and I leave about 75 post it notes/to do lists around my desk a day.

I've been thinking I might be able to organize better with one of these.

I like it because it's very utilitarian and small. No frills. I don't need wifi or mp3 or any of that bs.

Just calender, to do lists, notes, etc. Z22 has awesome battery life too.


How has your experience been switching to a pda?

If you keep notes/contacts through Outlook, it's one of the most useful things you can own.

<--PDA phone, all passwords, etc on it, you can't imagine how many times I've been asked stuff like, "What's your daughter's SS#?" & I pull it off my PDA.

Nah, they'll never figure it out, the stuff is under a note called "Secret Passwords"

But you're right, it's my wallet too, all my CC's are with it.

LOL, I'm fvcked if I lose my billfold anyway, it'd take me all of 1/2 hour to change all of my important passwords. I don't have stuff like PIN #'s in my PDA, I have stuff like my AT password etc on my PDA.

I have everything in one unit, PDA/phone/wallet with a good quality case.

i own a PDA phone also, i think it's great. i owned about 3 pda's before this phone and never really used the pda, now i have the audiovox 6600 and it's great. it does all the pda things but also has internet access anywhere i go.

it's great.
