Windows Mobile Smartphones/PPC is an all around gadget - pretty smart ei

Do you have all of these.......

1. discman, ipod or mp3 player or any kind of music - so you can listen to your favorite music.
2. pda or laptop for checking your emails and having your important files (i.e word documents)
3. camera for taking pictures
4. personal medial player (pmp/pvp) for watching your favorite movies
5. portable game console for gaming
6. Phone for calling and sending sms

If you do, do you have to carry all of these techie gadgets in one go? Are you going to bring them to your work everyday, in school or if you are on a holiday? Too bulky to carry around, I guess.

Well got a good news for you if you want to put all of them in one handy gadget.

Go get one of those Windows Mobile Smartphones or PPC, with a big size memory card you can store your favorite mp3's and some of your DVD movies by ripping/encoding with the use of third party softwares(pocketdivx for encoder and TCPMP for media player). You can check your emails and browse the internet with no fuzz, especially with those 3g devices. You can install all those third party application softwares, tools, utilities, etc to satisfy all your needs(some of them are free). Most of the WM handsets have a megapixel camera and the picture quality the camera is getting better everytime there is a new handset. you can install some free good games and you have to pay on some too. You can send sms messages and call with these devices. Lastly, you can install a satellite navigator so no reason to be lost on a trip or holiday.If I forgot something just remind me please.

I got couple of these beasts, and love them all of course. Well what can I say, I'm a certified Windows Mobile Addict.

Watch out for the upcoming Windows mobile devices with dvb, soon we are going to watch our favorite programs on Tv with our handheld device. Isn't it COOL!!!

Too bad I still have to wait with the coffee maker in the future. (lol)

Blimey!!! I'm just wondering how they put all the stuff in one hanheld device.

Ei, is this what you call smart gadget. c",)
