    It depends on how much of a PDA you need, but I find the Motorola A1000 fine

    Depends what you need, you get basic PDA functions on a "normal" sized phone like the Orange SPV C500. You can open and view (can't edit or create) word, excel, powerpoint and PDF's. Sync with PC, Sat Nav.

    Or you have the mid-sized range like the P910i, editing of above documents and a bit more.

    Then the brieze block phones, XDAs, M2000, these have the full functionality of the Ipaqs etc. Beware you find this can cause walking in circles :D .

    All depends what features you need.
