I bought a used CLIE NX70v
on eBay a few weeks ago for AU$200 because I wanted a PDA that I
could use at school to enter data with. I recently trimmed down to
just carrying an imate SP5 smartphone (very similar to the SP5m
reviewed on The-Gadgeteer) which is fantastic as a phone and
read-only PDA, but it was terrible for text entry. The first week
back at school had me longing for my touch-screened, keyboarded PDA
(previously the imate KJAM) for entering … [visit site to read more]

It’s funny how some forms of technology can be around for years before some
of us ever really notice them. Case in point: RSS feeds. Most of you have
probably heard of the term RSS before. Some of you are probably even using it.
This article is for that group of people that have heard of it, but never took
the time to understand what it is and why you might want to give it a try.

First things first. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.
This is a … [visit site to read more]

Studies have shown that 67.89% of gadgeteers own digital cameras, and that
99.8% of my studies have been conducted on a Ouija Board. Nevertheless, I’d
wager a bunch o’gadgeteers own digital cameras, and I’d further bet more than a
few have lost photos to corrupted media – whether the camera (or operator)
accidentally deletes those precious shots, or has happened twice in my case, the
camera ate my digital homework.

I’m not an expert, but I’ve unfortunately had some experience in … [visit site to read more]

First, let me thank Julie and Judie for the opportunity to write this article for the
Gadgeteer. Julie was one of the first to recognize the true potential of the
Stowaway keyboard in her review when we originally introduced the keyboard.

As the co-founder of Think Outside, I have strong opinions about keyboards
for handhelds that are based on our research and our experience in selling … [visit site to read more]

After purchasing an iPAQ 12 months ago, my long daily commute with this Pocket
PC and Avantgo left me with a feeling of wanting "something more." Not wanting
to spend a lot of additional money, I avoided the cost, bulk, and wait for

solutions typically require a PC card adapter, the wireless card itself, and
hefty monthly subscription fees.

Fast forward 1 year later – I’m … [visit site to read more]

Many people have wanted to connect to the Internet with their Pocket PC’s, but don’t know do not know how to, or they have some questions. Many of these questions are regarding the “extra steps” that are required to connect to a MSN ISP. I use
MSN too, so in the bold words you can find the extra steps that are required for MSN. Well, lets get started!
