What do you use your pocket pc for?

I remember the craze in Hotdeals over Dell Axims....so what do you use it for? Has it been useful? Or is it collecting dust?

Gone on eBay...

Too big, bought a notebook for $400 that can do stuff like burn CD's

It was fun surfing the net on a postage stamp size screen for about 1/2 hour, then it got old & went back to my Palm. Really want a Bluetooth enabled HP 1910 now... Maybe in a few months🙁

 
Synching up mail and calendar

Just got one, but I posted in SW looking for good Pocket PC games/utilities
 
Mobile po.... err I use it as an organizer, address book, GPS system, MP3 player, games, portable Internet browser (sucks as one though), AIM, picture viewer, and with my new 1GB flash card, hopefully as a Divx player.

My Axim is so much better than my old Palm. It's night and day.

You know, using it for taking notes might not be such a bad idea. I have to write down definitions for biology and usually towards the end of the chapter I can't make out what I'm writing (scientific words, need precise spelling).

Is there a keyboard available for the Dell?
 
I've had a Pocket PC for three years now and all I do with the thing is balance my checkbook and play solitaire.

My iPaq 3630 only lasts a little more than 1 hr if I use it as a mp3 player... and it's thick as hell once the CF sleeve is put on...

ive got a Toshiba e335 and I played mp3s for like an hour, and the battery life fell from like 95% to 60% or something, partly because the brightness turns all the way down after a couple of minutes of inactivity.

The e335 is slim as hell also, but at the expense of not having a CF slot, only an SD slot.
