Untitled 3 years ago

this is a great tool, my problem is that I really didnt need it. so, I didnt use it as much as I should have. However, this is great for keeping track of things…



I slept on it 3 years ago

Nope. I gave it a rest and woke up this morning knowing that a Blackberry or a Trio or whatever is not in my future. At least not my immediate future. There are just too many other items ahead of it that cost money. I may get a new cell phone when the time on my current plan runs out in September. And for now I’ll stick to good old-fashioned paper for scheduling and memos and handheld calculators for math.



Why is this here? 3 years ago

The question posed on the 43T homepage is “What do you want to do with your life?” Do I really count this among the 43 Things? It would be nice to have a PDA, sure. And I’d get a lot of use out of it. But there are so many other priorities ahead of it. I’d like to win one maybe, not buy one. Now that I’ve kinda got a WiFi-enabled laptop, this goal is slipping fast. Anybody want to talk me out of it or into it? I’m open to suggestions.



is this OK? 3 years ago

i’d like to get a tungsten TX with some accessories included, but i’ve been surfing and didn’t find anyone REALLY used it and wrote a review. i don’t really understand PDAs so technical reviews kinda not get to me.
i recently want a PDA for companion in travel and writing thesis/ data collecting. anyone have used tungsten TX and can review it? PLZ..



Not entirely convinced 3 years ago

I’ve read a lot of negative comments about this goal by people who’ve done it. There are many pros and quite a few cons. Chief among my considerations will be compatibility. Whatever I get has to interface with the most common computer programs I use. I’m not sure about phone functions and network plans, either. Hate to get tied into anything I can’t easily get out of. I had one of the original Palm Pilots back in the day. Accidentally left it in a taxi in New York Cityand never replaced it. Still feel foolish about that. Wouldn’t want to invest time/money in another and lose it. This is probably the one Thing out of my first 43 I am most likely to give up on. It is not a high priority at all.
