Personal Productivity Desires
I was looking into PDAs again today. I already have two, but one of them is broken, and I am letting Joy use the other.
When I was looking at these PDAs at Palm.com, Sony.com and Ebay I was thinking about what I would like in a PDA, and I realized that these newer PDAs have either extra funcitonality that I will not use OR they lack some things I want. So, I thought about what I do want for “personal productivity.”
Basically, I’d like a PDA, in color with optional backlighting, that had a fairly sturdy metal casing. It would also act as my phone. It would have a long (18 hour) battery life. It would get great reception wherever one could possibly get reception. It would also come with a case that could hold the following with easy access — at least 5mm-thick worth of cash; ID cards/business cards; and credit cards.
I guess it would be easier to just get a cell with good reception, a $100 color PDA with Palm OS 4+, and something to hold my cash and cards and then put all that into a purse, but… I’m a guy. Purses aren’t exactly acceptable for guys right now. Besides, Then I’d still be hunting… only for the perfect purse.
I, for one, certainly hope to never see the days of David, the man-purse carrier.
