You haven't said what you wish to do with a PDA.

I use mine for a calender and scheduling,

address book, t

o keep track of my budget and expenses,

to carry pictures around to show my co-workers,

an advanced calculator,

To Do list (with categories for home and work),

to keep track of the local tides so as not to drown when I take my dog to the off-leash park at the beach,

to break down enormous projects into smaller, more managable pieces,

for my diary,

to write and edit policies and procedures,

to carry around copies of procedures whick I may need from time-to-time but am not all that familiar with.

to write letters to family and friends (instead of carrying around a heavy laptop),

to keep track of my blood pressure,

to figure out Weight Watcher's points,

to record every thing I put into my mouth (well, that's the goal, but not necessarily the reality)

to store a database of drugs, doses, routes, etc,

to store all of thsoe passwords you need every day,

shopping list,

list of ideas for Christmas and birthday gifts for everyone I buy for,

keep track of gas milage, oil changes, etc. for my car,

to keep track of the rapidly changing sizes for my stepkid,

to play freecell and solitaire when I'm stuck in traffic or waiting in the doctor's office, etc.

If you think you can benefit from any of these (or any one of thousands of other ideas you can find my looking through Palmgear.com or Handango.com) go for it. I can't imagine how I'd get along without my PDA!
