Hi all, I'm looking at buying a PDA, mainly to use for Sat Nav. But would also like to play MP3's / Videos on it.
Would prefer it if it had integrated Bluetooth, wifi & GPS.
Anyone recommend owt that'd fit the bill?

I think I'm gonna go for a Dell X30 624Mhz with the TomTom Bluetooth GPS Reciever package. Just need to try and find a decent deal for it now, so any advice as to where would be the cheapest to buy it from would be helpfull

Do your user research on the Bluetooth GPS bit. It's a great idea but our guys at work have gone back to wired receivers for reliability, less hassle and ease of use.0 -

Good choice

Keep an eye on the Dell UK site as they have offers on all the time. I got my Axim for 198 inc vat and delivery a couple of months back. Excellent it is to 0
