Suggestions for a first time PDAer

[Ben Ken]

Hi,

I've wanted a PDA for a long time, and now I have the money to get one! Unfortunately I havent been able to find one that meets my stringent requirements:

• Can be used as a mobile phone and change to a skype phone when in range of an accessable WiFi network
• Can be used as an MP3 player (with an SD card if it hasn't much internal memory)
• Has very few buttons
• Mustn't be made by a mobile phone company
• Have a calendar application

And preferably (but not vitally):

• Run on a linux based OS
• Nice'n thin/light

Is there anything that fulfils these requirements?

Thanks for your time,

Ben

This one will fit most of your requirements

There isnt anything at the moment that fits all your requirements though. Most of the other PDA's we do with wifi and phone capabilities are either going to be bulkier or wont be fast enough to run skype.

You can see teh rest of PDA/phones here.
