$300-500, he wants internet, etc. i have no idea what to look for, as i don't own one myself.

thanks.

the 4350/4355 is good if he wants a keyboard built in, otherwise the 4150/4155 is a little cheaper (and smaller)

 

Dell Axim X3i

i think you need to decide if you want the palm os or windows os first.

if you want a pda just for the sake of using it as a pda and nothing else palm.
if you want to take advantage of multimedia, such as mp3's movies, game, etc pocketpc is the way to go. and for your price range I'd grab a Ipaq 2215 doesn't have built in wifi but you can add it if you want and it has both CF and SD slots for good expansion

if this boy doesn't even know the difference between PalmOS and PPC, he should definitely get a palm device.

anyway, Sony TH55 for palm, HP 4155 for PPC. both have built in wireless.
