I used a Palm for years but nowadays I generally keep track of things with tiny bits of paper. I’m still not sure which method is better. I may change my mind when I get a new phone though.

Crashing and loosing all your data.
Falling on the ground requiring a $500 “oops fee”.
Display the Microsoft Logo.
Deliver an exception fault or Blue screen.

PDAs are cool, but it is still technology in its infancy. Lets see where these clunky belt decorators lead too…

If you need to reference back to an old appointment or contact you need to DIG and pray that you remembered exactly what day you wrote that on. My memory sucks, but that is the point of carrying a calander right

Security is another issue, my pda/phone can’t sport a cool little lock and key.

Your right it might cost us a few bones if I destroy my pda/phone, but I would much rather do that then pay for new inserts for your planner, pens, paper, new organizer, and have to rewrite a new contact list from old worn out pages, Not to mention, have you tried to keep a truely alphabetized contact book out of a planner.

Again, I’m not that smart, that is why I have the computer do all the work for me.
