What Am I Searching For? by albert on 07-01-2006 at 03:34 AM

With summer courses, work, driving courses, orthodentist appointements and activites, I got a full schedule.

I now use Microsoft Outlook 2003 to schedule my days, which I find pretty good.

What I really need help with is actually this :

I want to buy some kind of "PDA" or "palm" (I truly don't know the difference) that could syncronize my outlook data schedule to the "PDA" (or Palm).

I want it to be in colours of course, and if it has some cool applications I would appreciate it as well.

I'm ready to spend about 250$ CA on this, and well, the stores I can get to are :

-Best Buy (http://www.bestbuy.ca)
-Future Shop (http://www.futureshop.ca)
-Staples (http://www.bureauengros.ca)
-La Source (http://www.lasourcecc.com)
-CompuSmart (http://www.compusmart.com)

Thanks in advance, appreciated.

First off, PDA is the general term for them. Palm is a brand that makes them (PalmOS is an operating system for Palm PDAs.) However if you want good windows integration i suggest getting a PocketPC (PocketPC PDAs are made by several brands, and run on Windows CE.)

These seem cool but are too expensive..
