Hi Folks, I’m in a gadget rut… I need something exciting to perk my gizmo lust. Will the upcoming color Palm m505 do it? Maybe the Sony AIBO that we’re getting to review soon will do the trick (oops let that one slip didn’t I?). Or maybe I need to go look at some cool

Guess what folks? I’m back to using the iPAQ as my main PDA again. Yeah, you can just call me fickle girl. 🙂 The multimedia capabilities of the Pocket PC is a very strong draw for me and the Palm platform is slightly boring at this point. Here’s hoping 2001 will be different. Speaking of

Technically Speaking by Julie Strietelmeier Not to brag, but I just got the latest and greatest PDA wonder. The Casio E-100. This little marvel is super fast, can play music in stereo, and movies in color! So, what does that have to do with being a Personal Digital Assistant you might ask? Not much really…
