i am looking for a new PDA (its time for the Palm Vx to retire, finally )

i am looking for one that:
- have wi fi (blue tooth is nice too but seems not a must have)
- can play mp3 (in stock form? some PDA needs add-on for mp3, right?)
- hopefully can do MS words, excel, etc as well
- hope it won't be a brick (size and weight)
- decent battery life (i don't know how long they run now, my Palm can go on for 2 weeks without recharging)

i guess doesn't mater:
- blue tooth (seems like i won't use blue tooth that much?)
- Palm or Windows OS (as long as it can do the above, which one is upgradeable?)
- camera (nice to have, but doesn't really matter cause they usually take crappy pic anyway)
- i don't know if keyboard is user friendly?

any thoughts?

thanks

 

Crackberry?

 

I got a siemans sx 56 from t mobile. Its really good for what i need it for. u can play media files or mp3, excel, word, games, etc alot of stuff u need u can download from online.

 

basically you are probably best off getting a pocketPC. many pocketPCs have embedded wifi (with some having both wifi and bluetooth), and they all come with a pocketPC version of word and excell. on top of that, all pocketPCs come with windows media player that allows you to play MP3s and video files, and internet explorer for you to surf the net with your wifi. also, pocketPCs are comparably small and light like palm pilots these days, plus they have larger screens with higher resolutions which are great for games. the only downside with pocketPCs is that the battery life will be nowhere as great as that of a palm pilot. if you use your pocketPC regularly, expect to be charging your pocketPC every night or every other night.


in terms of which one to get, i'm partial to the HP ipaqs, so go to their site and figure out which model will fit your needs the most.

axim x50v

 

treo 650

 

hp ipaq 4150/55 or 4350/55 if you need a keyboard.. ive had the 4355 and i absolutely love it, cant live without it.. surf the web/play games when im bored, write emails on the fly, plus keep track of all my calendar stuff

 

the dell x50v seems to be pretty good with 624MHz

i thought sony used to have a small one with a flip keyboard, ux-50?

No recommendation for Tungten line-up? How about a Tungsten E?
