Do you have any other PDA's other than Visor?

Do you? I don't, my Visor Platinum is my first PDA.

I have quite a collection - my wife thinks I should join PDAholics Annonymous.

1. Visor Prism (primary PDA)
2. RIM Blackberry 957 (mainly for work email - the PIM features are marginal)
3. Diamond Mako (rebadged Psion Revo Plus)
4. Old Visor Deluxe
5. Rex 3
6. Old Sharp Wizard OZ-650

I use the first three regularly, for different functions. I rarely use the last three anymore, although I keep the Deluxe and Rex more or less current in terms of data.

I considered ebaying the Deluxe, but I sometimes use it while hiking in conjunction with my Magellan GPS Companion Module instead of my Prism. It's easier to read outside, and I wouldn't be as crushed if something happened to it out in the woods somewhere.

What about "No, but I've owned them before" ?
I mean, just because you only have one, doesn't mean it's your first. (tho mine is.)

Ditto.
I owned a Graphite Visor Deluxe first, then sold it to a co-worker and bought a Prism.

Still have my Palm III but I don't use it anymore and will probably sell it.

How about a "multiple all of the above" choice.

My current list is getting a little bit ridiculous. I have almost every consumer Palm OS and PocketPC device that has been made. My Palms go back to the Pilot 1000 (I just put new batteries init a couple of weeks ago). I have various clam shell WinCE devices from the first Casio (what a piece of crap), to the latest HP 720. I have Palm Size PCs and Pocket PCs in virtually all of the flavors available (except the mono IPAQ). I have never bought a Psion or any of its clones (just not interested).

I don't know if you mean to include these but, I have my old Newtons in the closet. I have a 110, 130, and 2100. Still really useful with the Newton OS but not really practical as far as weight and form factor.

Brad:

You ought to complete your collection and get a Psion Revo Plus (or Diamond Mako, same thing). They are very capable, and you can get them cheap now that Psion is sort of getting out of the PDA business.

I voted as "yes, a previous visor" even though my Platinum doesn't arrive until tomorrow. I also think I will sell my Visor Deluxe at school probably for 80 bucks.

I've still got my original Palm IIIx. I upped the RAM to 8 meg and the flash to 4 and it is a kicking little unit. I'm running OS 3.3 and will update to 3.5 as soon as Palm gets the latest patches in the $$$ OS download.

As a general unit, the Palms are great. And try reading at night with a Handspring. Unfortunately they did something really cheesy with their backlight. It might as well not even be there. Put a Palm IIIx next to a Handspring in the dark and you won't believe the difference.
