Would be great working in the field. Instead of writing technical data on relay protection sheets, we could do it in excel on this thing.

this of it this way... if you do alot of hands on work where your phone can get messed up, and you need a pda - this is the one for you. you cant go use your p910 as it might break with all the work you do, so you bring this thing along.
i bet they arnt cheap though
Its good to be back! |

If any of the field technicians would need one, then the company will pay for one.
