    Pocket PC/PDA

    I am thinking of getting a pocket pc/pda.

    I don't know what to get though.

    I know I want a touch screen, colour, wi-fi, and preferably in-built phone stuff, I also want to be able to edit HTML and preferably use visual-basic. Also I want it to have windows.

    I can't find anything that has many of these. Please, if you know of any, can you post the name of it on this post.

    What's your idea for the phone service you wish to use? (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc.)

    I'm not sure it does exactly all you want, and they are rather expensive, but the I-Mate Ultimate range might be worth a look. I am writing this on my ageing I-Mate PDA2K which I stll use as my mobile phone and it does a pretty good job as a mobile Windows PC.
    It's a big market, good luck.

    Thanks, I've seen these before - they are very good. Unfortunately, at £150 a shot, they are a bit out of my price range.

    Wolf693, I want either unlocked or O2 so I can keep my old sim card

    Unlocked? Well then you can find a lot out there. The smartphone I use is the AT&T Blackjack II, which is AT&T exclusive. I got it for $300 which is around £150. But anyways, you can do an online search for "Unlocked Smartphones" and see what you get.

    How about the O2 XDA range. Most of these are made by HTC (rebranded).
    I own an ipaq and an XDA Orbit.
    I prefer the XDA although it has a smaller screen.
    Sure you can pick them up quite cheap on ebay.
    Not sure about VB support though...
