I am out in the market for the best PDA/phone combo. I am going to use a lot of it for work, basically writing down notes on the PDA all the time, writing notes and maybe pulling up some info. on the net. I want it to be a good funtioning phone also and easy to use. If I could dial on a keypad, instead of putting it in with the stylus that would be awesome. Just curious if anyone has any feedback for me. Thanks

Welcome to Esato.

Am looking for the same as well. At the moment I have a P800 and a P900 which are great but am looking around for something new and am waiting now for the release of the Motorola MPX 300 which has a lot of features.

If you don't want a touch screen phone, then a good option would be the Orange SPV C500 or even better the T-Mobile SDA. It's small, has WM2003 SE, miniSD (unfortunately no hot swap) and many more. Also the screen is very clear.
May the power of search be with you

I'm using a Motorola MPX200 with unofficial Mobile 2003, and it's great, but if you need to write a lot than a touchscreen will be better, P900/910.

Cheers.

If you are going to do a lot of typing, dont mind the lack of a touchscreen and money is not an issue, I would recommend the Nokia 9500 right off the bat.

Take a look at the Qtek S100 mate. It looks really nice :-) More PDA perhaps but nice. I use a Qtek 8010 (Orange SPV500 I think it's called in the UK) and it's great! /paro

I think the best PDA with phone features is the IPAQ 6340 or the QTEK 9090.

@abadr1 - Glad to have you aboard Esato mate! I quite agree with that of @dragonfly_tp's recommendation . . . The Nokia 9500 is 'quite' good as well!

I'd have a look at the I-Mates, maybe the JAM, and if you want something a bit bigger, the PDA2K.

Just my Input, hope you get what you are looking for!
