[ILUG] [OT} Mobile Phone/PDA

Well the P900 won the day and I have to admit pretty nifty it is too!

It seems to do all that I wanted it to and in `a neat and tidy package.
Im not so convinced with the case as it has a big belt clip and im not
fussed about showing off the toys but I suppose that is a minor issue.

The cost was interesting.

{This from Orange in Belfast so prices in £'s}

Qualifying line rental is 120 Mins for £25 pm so at this the phone was
£200.  This can be reduced to 60 mins for £12  pm  if not a heavy user
after six months
There was £50 discount for taking a two year contract
Then £50 for phone trade in (In my case a Nokia 3410 which was a freebie
from  Vodaphone)
So cost to me was £100 which I thought wasnt too bad!

This may be a cheapo option for who ever was looking for a new pda?

One thing now is that it syncs with either Outlook, Lotus Notes or Lotus
Organiser 6  so im wondering about an open source alternative. Any ideas?
