Story: PDA prizefight: Palm OS 5 v Windows Mobile 2003

absolutely agree with the article. being a user of pocketPC 2002 and 2003, and Palm5, i must say while the pocketPC often can do more, the palm does what it does better. tungsten C can match almost any pocketPC for power and memory, has the easiest wifi setup i've seen, and required absolutely no learning curve. and it has a keypad (ok, maybe that's an unfair advantage for this particular model). and lasts days and days of usage. and documents to go is truly a peach--i've seen too many mangled Word and Excel files on pocketPC. never happened on DocsToGo. palm is the organiser. pocketPC is the mini-computer. that's the difference.
