I got a PDA, but there is not much need for it and maybe not for you either.. For 1, Writing it with a keyboard or letter recognizer sucks-- it just takes to long. Adress book is good cept why need one whens thers one on your cell phone? Yes, with new ones you can check e-mail and "surf" on the net... But really, unless you'r a CEO of microsoft and need to check e-mail every 2min thers aint a point. I mean, you got a pc at home, and at school so theres lots of places you could check e-mail. As for other addons, I dunno I just dont see the big deal with em unless your older and need one to REALLY organize.

I've got a Visor Deluxe (blue) and it's amazing. I love it. It's cheap so I'm not to worried about breaking it or losing it (although I would die without it).  I use it all the time, but I don't have any add on's. Don't need um.  And that Visor Phone only works in select cities (and not in SF, WTF?), but if they work in your city, they are great.  Do you have any specific questions?  
I would have to say that the best is the one I have, it's expandable, cheap, and all you really need.

Yeah, it comes with a stylus and 3 replacement tips (I don't know how they would wear out though).  It also comes with a cradle to sync it with your PC and PalmDesktop software.  
I have a few games, some of them are lots of fun, some suck, you know how it is.  They work though.

Hope you like it, oh, I got mine from www.elinux.com, they were the cheapest. Peace,

quik, thats what im talking about. i just got mine about 2 months ago, but i lost it and just found it again. i only spent 150, its all i had, and i think mines pretty tite though a more expensive one would even be better. mines got 40mb cards, anywhere from 12-18 songs ... the cards cost about 8 bucks, and its through firewire into the player i put the songs on...

yeah, some things i want for christmas are...
frisbee golf discs
floor stand cd holder (you know, they sit on the floor but are like 6 feet tall)
few cds
bryce 5 (like my parents will go for that)
some of the new optimus headphones, kick ass, 70$ , but on sale theyre like 40. #### those things are awesome.


i have trouble thinking of things i want now, must be maturity or something. ;) my bro is spitting em out though, hes 12, he actually wrote out a list of about 100 things and when someone asks he just hands it out,.

Capty, if you want the best headphones, get Sony V-700's.  You can find them on sale for 贄, but they are the BEST headphones on the market.  It's what professional DJ's use, the biggest DJ's in the world, and headphones are to dj's as golf clubs are to a golfer. You can't be good with out good ones.

maybe you should focus more on your spelling skillz rather than what PDA to get marko...  everyone i've ever seen who gets a PDA because they "have to have it" (excluding you Neoracle) uses it for about a month and then it gets forgotten.  just my personal observation... you might actually NEED it, though i can't see why you can't get one of those nifty phonebook watches to do the same thing.
