NEED PDA with alllll the features!!! BOO YAH!!

Ok peoples...I here am looking to get me pops a pda that has it ALL! When I say all...I mean, it will even make joolian fries!

here is what I want.

I'm looking for features, not nessarly speed, but since I want a windows OS, I'm gonna have to go with the pentium xscale models

OS - windows, no wanty palm os
needs to be able to take pictues
needs to have an intergrated phone
gotta have some bluetooth action
and also some 802.11b/g action also!
expandable slots, either SD or CF will suffice

Ok, I think thats it.

The most I can get out of that is

Dell Axim X30 - doesn't have phone or camera

Hitatchi G1000 - doesn't have 802.11 or Bluetooth

Samsung i700 - doesn't have 802.11 or Bluetooth

Looks like you may have to rewire two of these into one big frakenstein PDA. Or just buy him a laptop.

There isn't currently a unit that satisfies all your needs. The closest one would be the new HP iPaq h6315, as that has everything but the fast processor (why HP would take an all-in-one communications device and pair it with a crappy CPU is beyond me).

actually I found a pda with all those features that I wanted

well...minus the 802.11b action.

but there are sd cards that busts out wifi!

Anywho, it's made by O2, XDA. I haven't heard of it. And it's friggin expensive. But we'll see what we're gonna do with it.

Thx guys for helping out!

Except, as I mentioned above, a speedy processor. The Texas Imstruments OMAP cannot compare with the XScale CPU's.

psycho, that would be exactly what I need!!! thx sooo much!

Hey, question, is there another external keyboard I can use for this action? Beucase my dad wants a full keyboard instead of the puny thumb keyboard that comes with the hp. I'm talking about a foldable keyboard, like the ones that targus makes for palm, sony, and used to be handspring. tia
