Advantages: small and compact, Expensive

Disadvantages: Little heavy for shirt pockets

I have used PDAs for many years now, and have owned a Tungsten C for several months. Without a doubt, it is the best I have had so far.

First of all, it has the largest memory of the range -I believe the new ones coming out have similar sized memories - at 64MB... 51MB of which is usable as RAM. It also has a very fast processor, which makes a huge difference to the enjoyment of using it... fast is good! The screen is very bright and clear and viewable in all but the brightest light. Battery life is also very good, with it lasting upto several days with normal usage.

The WiFi seems to work OK. I haven't had an opportunity to try it outside, but on my home network, it was a doddle to set up and I can now receive emails and surf the www from anywhere in the house.

Software is plentiful and abundant on the internet and the unit came with a couple of very good popular packages already "built-in" when I bought mine.

The built-in keyboard is slightly too small for my sausage-fingers, but useful when I forget my Graffiti keystrokes!

I love this PDA and it goes everywhere with me - which, of course, is what it should do!
