Review summary |
There isn't too much the PalmOne LifeDrive can't do with its integrated hard drive, its wireless connectivity, and its multimedia capabilities, but it's way too expensive.
|
The handheld meets the laptop in Sony's fully loaded, clamshell-style CLIE UX-50 PDA.
|
Only built-in Wi-Fi is missing from Sony's otherwise fully loaded, clamshell-style CLIE UX40 PDA.
|
It's longer than your average Pocket PC, but its integrated keyboard and higher-capacity battery make the H4350 a top choice for heavy Wi-Fi users.
|
Despite its poor battery life, this Garmin is a powerful PDA and an accomplished GPS device.
