   @Banklawls That last complaint sort of relates to my mistake of trying to convert PaperPort made pdfs into something a portable device can read and the discovery that these apps are usually not very customizable at all.

   This device opened my eyes. It does everything I wanted it to do and more but for as much as you would pay for this..just get some shiny new phone like an HTC HD2.

   My first portable computing device. It’s nice but..the battery life is too short, related to poor design of the way it uses the CF port by many accounts. Windows Mobile 6 with no decimals or hope of upgrades. Many apps want you to place the tip of the stylus on the far right side of the screen and move it CAREFULLY in order to scroll, clumsy. wifi and bluetooth eat power to fast. And lastly just finding the right app for the job is a pain.

   @Banklawls Cool. I do not like Apple products either. I actually own a Zune HD right now which is totally awesome. If I need another handheld for school purposes or whatever, I think I’d get a PDA if they still make them. I like the idea of using a stylus and the Office Mobile.

   Good question!

   I need to be able to surf the net, read a pdf, use a bluetooth keyboard and connect to wifi at once. The iPod Touch can do this..if you are willing to void the warranty to gain functionality that should be built in by now and if you are willing to eat a few bluetooth/wifi drops.

   The iPod Touch uses the same chip, antenna and frequency for bluetooth and wifi so there are some difficulties there.

   tl:dr: pcfag gave apple a chance and rediscovered why he despises the company

   they are more buisness-oriented, and are more open scorse so you can load emulators etc.. plus this one has a higher res sceen and a faster proscesser than the ipod touch.

    This is an informative question, so don’t take it the wrong way, anyone. What reasons would someone decide to buy a PDA or Pocket PC instead of an iPod Touch?

    Very nice video and understanding. On my website you can have access to online texting for free. You can create a contact list of friends to send a text message. Just go to my profile to see.
