PDA/handheld PC advice

[Jeffry]

NSXers,

I am looking for a good PDA possibly in the $300 CDN ($190 USD) range.... After reading numerous reviews, I considered Sony Clié PEG-S360 or maybe the SL10 as good PDA's for my budget. Any advice?

I like to keep my PDA slim if possible, so I can bring it to school....

Thanks in advance.

My best advice is to go down to an electronics or office supply store and actually TRY the models you are considering. There are many things you may like or dislike about a unit that you can't tell from reading the specs.

Good advice from Lud - it is impossible to judge the feel and check out the screen unless you actually handle the units - and even that is a problem because many stores will have "dummy" units on display with simulated screens!
Check out The Gadgeteer for reviews, also sites like PDA Street.

PS: if you don't need the latest and greatest there are some excellent deals to be had on older Palm models such as the IIIc and Vx - still available brand new.
