Buying my 1st PDA

[YawAppiah]

Hello all,

I am in the market for a PDA, although I am stalled at the moment on the palm treo(680 and up) and the nokia E61. I like the wifi capability on the nokia and I have not been able to find this feature on the palms yet. I intend on running Epocrates and other medical programs. Any suggestions and advice will be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Yaw

If you are looking to run medical software you are probably better going for the Treo as it will have a wider range available for it.

In particular, Epocrates is only available for Palm, Pocket PC, Windows Mobile Smartphone and Windows Mobile 5 at the moment.

Regarding wifi, you can get a wifi card to plug into your treo: http://store.palm.com/sm-wi-fi-card-...i-1853744.html

Or, you could buy a Palm with wifi already such as the Palm TX:

Hope that helps,

thanks, I am now pretty certain I will choose a palm treo device. i researched the wifi cards and i only found a bulky sleed device. Are there any cards that can be hidden from view or less bulky. Finally, with my carrier i think only a gsm treo like the 680 will work for me and these do no appear to have a wifi card.

Thanks again,
Yaw

The SD wifi card is not very bulky but won't work on a 680.
