Palm vs Pocket Pc

[Porritt, David]

John:

Verizon Wireless (and probably all the others) has GPS available on your
cell phone.  It works well and is cheap.  I don't use it as I go to the
same place every day but I did check out their 2-week free trial.

I'm a Palm user, but if I were buying a new device today, it would be
one like the HP iPAQ rx5915 with GPS.  Back two years ago when I was
weighing the Palm OS vs. Pocket PC, there were more general
applications available for Palm. Not sure what it is now.

I'm not sure what ETDs it will run (I tune aurally). I am
directionally challenged. Once I get to a piano, I can handle all the
tuning myself. ;-)  The GPS would help me more, and I could always buy
RCT later if I wanted to.
