I wanted to get the look and feel thing sorted as I'd seen them years ago but never taken the plunge. Unfortunately not one shop had even a dummy model in stock so I decided spending £600 on a device I've never seen before was a little risky. Two days in, I've installed Pocket Informant on my new iPAQ and I'm starting to feel a little better about it!

Personally I gave up on the whole PDA malarky years ago and just sync my E95 against Outlook. People send me meeting requests, I accept them, sync with my phone via Bluetooth and at some stage in the future it’ll go off 15 minutes before I’m due to be somewhere.
