Default Need help finding a PDA.

I'm looking to buy a PDA for my wife. She is currently in her clinicals for nursing. They told her that some of the medical books that they will be reading are also available in PDA form. They also said that next year the will be requiring everyone to have a PDA.

I have no clue where to even start. I would like it to have wireless capability and color. No idea on price range either as I have no idea what would be considered midrange or high end.

I tried the search function, but it wouldn't let me search for PDA.

Home & Home Office: Palm TX Handheld

There's one of the more expensive Palms, the software we have at work is probably the same as what your wife needs, and we use palm series handhelds. It's pretty useful when you have to look up a medication fast. That model has WiFi and Bluetooth.

Dell had a series called Axim but I'm not able to locate any now,they may have discontinued them. They were low priced but decent quality. If you don't want any wifi connectivity, the price of a Palm drops nearly 100 bucks.

I think the Ferrari is a custom designed version of the N50 isn't it? Which isn't bad on it's own, I just wouldn't need it in red. Acer n50 - Review : Handhelds - CNET Asia

I have a Dell Axim x50v I am not using anymore. It's practically brand new, color screen in 640x480 resolution, and in excellent condition. Have a ton of applications and programs for it, along with plenty of other goodies such as an extra battery, memory cards (both SD and CF), carrying cases and screen protectors as well. Comes with the dock and all the cables too. Bluetooth and wireless capable, runs at 624Mhz.

You looking to sell it? If Phosphorous isn't interested I might make an offer.

Aye, I am looking to sell it. Was actually going to post it here, just haven't gotten around to taking pictures and all that stuff.
