Ok, since we have quite a few technically proficient folks here, I thought I would ask this. I want something i can write txt docs on so i can mod on the run - when I am stuck at some stupid temp job staring at the walls, for instance. A PDA if you will, but all I need to do is make txt docs. Ergo - - it has to have a proper keyboard, however small - it has to be insanely cheap (since I am not paying $1000 for something that can connect to the net, play videos and do heavens-knows-what else that I DO NOT NEED). It can be anything. A spell checker with USB connection that you can type long stuff into. A portable email device (i saw one of them going for $10 once and was too stupid to buy it. It was perfect. Can't remember its name). A phone. A gameboy-style thing. Anything at all that is cheap, can export its text and has a keyboard. O and its gotta be smaller than a full-fledged laptop of course. Something that can be kept in the pocket. Any ideas?
Here's my 2 cents, is strictly a PDA [is not a phone]. -> MyPal A626 from ASUS Windows OS: Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 Installed Software: Notes, Voice Recorder, Calendar, Contacts, File Explorer, Tasks, Microsoft Pocket Outlook, ActiveSync, Microsoft Excel Mobile, Microsoft Internet Explorer Mobile, Microsoft Word Mobile, Microsoft PowerPoint Mobile, Windows Media Player Mobile Included Accessories: Protection bag, cigarette lighter adapter, car holder Input Device Type: Touch-screen (no keypad) - has a stylus and a 4-way navigation button Processor: Intel XScale 312 MHz Memory: ROM 128 MB (FLASH); RAM 64 MB (SDRAM) Size: Width 2.8 inches, Length 4.6 inches Depth 0.6 inches Weight 5.6 ounces (1/3 lb) COST: $319.00 (or as low as 10 dollars per month) ---------------------------------------- OPTIONAL: SanDisk - 2 GB Secure Digital Memory Card $30.99 ----------------------------------------
factoid: Did you know that the method to hack the latest and greatest iPhone connected to a computer is already documented on the Internet?
