Suggestions on a PDA....

I am looking to upgrade my current PDA which is a Palm 3. I am leaning towards a PocketPC but I am not really sure. I know I want a PDA that has some expandability and I would really like to be able to use my CF cards for music and extra storage. Any suggestions?

A friend of mine switched from Palm to the Compaq iPac. Full color screen and Windows CE. He likes it alot.

I had a handspring visor prism up until just recently. I bought an iPaq 3975 (real blow to the wallet but wireless is so cool!). Its very fast and works great (I have a targus stowaway keyboard for typing notes in class).What do you mean by CF cards? Ipaqs have removeable flash cards, which work well albeit expensive.

Take a look at the Dell Axium.
It's Pocket PC 2002-based. And the cradle looks cool!

No, really. I have a Casio E-200 that I use for all kinds of stuff. My current client does a lot of development for handhelds and I use my Casio a lot as a test bed. Full of features.

So is the Dell. At about HALF the price!

If my E-200 ever goes belly-up (or gets stepped on), I'll go with the Dell as a replacement in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the ideas so far. When I said CF I meant Compact Flash cards. My MP3 player and my digi cam use em both. It would be nice to have a PDA that uses CF cards for extra storage.

I'd recommend the Zaurus
