Hi Folks! Merry Christmas to one and all!!!

I don't use my T68i much at all for voice calls! Maybe a bit strange!!

So I was wondering whether to get a PDA such a Sony Clie with the camera or Tungsten or the P800.

Any thoughts? Please don't write 'it's up to you! ' lol!!

I currently have a T68 and have just sold my 4 week old iPAQ3870 ready to buy the P800.

I want an all in one device but the choice of phone, PDA or combi depends on what you want.

List your top 5 requirements.

Good idea! List my top 5 requirements!! thanks...

I would like to send e-mail to my friends in Japan, to their mobiles and PC's. T68 can't do it using POP/smtp. Body of e-mail can't be read....so that's important, even though I could use wap for e-mail.

Sync with Outlook is important.

Camera and video yes, very useful!

Music is important too but these bud-type ear phones fall out of my Prince Charles ears too easily!!

putting on a dictionary or other software very useful. I would like a Japanese/English one that can show the Japanese characters too!

Ofiaich!

Sounds like you need the new Sony Clie with the built in camera and keypad together with your T68.

P800 possibly but only with extra software (will take time to come)

Possibly the new Sony Clie NX70V .... I wonder what the price of the P800 will be as compared to this Sony.

The most useful software I have runs on the Windows CE O.S. mmmm!!

My darling the iPAQ3870 went the first day that i got the P in my hand.
(the P in my hand, sounds wrong...)
i want it all ... in ojune unit and so far the P accomplishes that just fine.
Missing the MSN Messenger client though.

The "p in your hand" sounds fine compared to "My darling".

Hi!

does MSN and ICQ run in the background so that you can see and hear when messages arrive?

I have MSN and ICQ so I can help you with any tests if you wish!

I sent my ICQ plus hotmail address as a private message
