Post your PDA History!
By: MitzEclipse @ 02:24 PM

What PDA's have you owned in the past? Here is my list in chronological order. Of course I don't have all of these currently, I have sold them in the past to generate $ for the new ones:

Palm Pilot 1000
Palm Pilot Professional
Casio Cassiopiea A-11
Texas Instruments Avigo
NEC MobilePro 400
Rolodex REX 3
Palm Pilot IIIxe
Palm Pilot IIIc
Xircom Rex 5000
Palm Pilot m100
Casio E-105 w/ Casio CF Digital Camera
Handspring Visor Solo
Handspring Visor Deluxe w/ Eyemodule
Compaq IPAQ H3150 w/ CF Sleeve
Compaq IPAQ H3650 w/ PCMCIA Sleeve

I currently own a Handspring Visor Edge because of the slim form factor, sleek design, battery life, and I really didn't need color. Plus I wanted to go back to the Palm OS because WinCE just takes too many clicks and taps to do what Palm OS can do. However, once Pocket PC 2002 comes out....

What is your history?

3com's discontinued "Internet Appliance", basically a stripped down computer running QNX with an Email app and Internet browser and that's about it. Availible for under $100 on ebay, it used to be $500.

As a student, and with very little money...

- Paper and pencil (saw an ad in PC Mag of Sept 1999, of a Visor Deluxe, wanted to have a PDA ever since)

- Compaq 2010c (first PDA given to me by my brother, couldn't last on its battery for more than 30 mins!)

- Palm IIIc (sold the compaq for the IIIc and GoType keyboard)

- Diamond Mako (was only $99, but eventually returned it, because my next PDA could do everything it could do, couldn't justify keeping it. bought a stowaway instead.)

- Sony Clie PEG-N710C (best PalmOS unit avaliable, HAD to have it, took me lots of savings and effort to get it, I love it)
