Best PDA Phone???? **NEED ADVICE GFY** - GoFuckYourself.com

BlueWire · 05-23-2005, 02:24 PM

Here is what i'm looking for out of a mobile phone/PDA:

HTML Browsing (Flash enabled, i'd like to be able to see as close of representation as possible)

FTP Access
ICQ & Yahoo IM
Email Access w/ ability to dl attachments

Able to open:

JPEG, GIF, SWF, Excel, Word
Connect either via the cell phone network or wireless networks.

The point of this is because I am more and more away from the office and I need to:

1) Answer emails all day
2) Communicate with clients via IM clients all day while away from office
3) Communicate with employees and be able to give visual feedback

I've looked at Blackberry's and they look nice..but i've heard others say that there are better alternatives. Anyone have any opinions on this?

I like the new Motorolas...

I like the blackberry 7250 (I think is the model #) Not really a PDA, but has a ton of PDA-like goodies.

I use the O2 XDAII,
ICQ, MSN, Skype, email, ftp..
There is a lot of software you can get that will work on any pocket PC to do what you want.

I can do all that with my little Window Smartphone and it's 1/4 the size of any PDA.
