Help!
I haven't opened the box yet. Has anyone switched from palm to pocket pc? I have always had a Palm until it recently burned out. Currently I use the palm for pim, some games, as a book reader, and client contact database. I tried finding pros and cons reviews but couldnt find anything over the internet.

If you switched from palm to pocket pc do you like it? What was some drawbacks that you found? What was some advantages?
Any feedback would be appreciated. I have 10 days before I have to return to best buy.

Thanks

I made the switch from Palm to Windows CE/PocketPC about 3 years ago. My first was an NEC MobilePro 780. Still have it and you can find me posting in that forum as well. I made a move to iPaqs after that. Never looked back and have not regretted it.

For each person the drawbacks and advantages are different. Palm's were more user friendly, but I am a geek so I did not mind the challenge of Windows CE. At the time I also needed portable terminal emulation for working on routers and switches. Palm did not have that available at the time.
