PDA apple....

Hi,

I need a PDA that can sync with my powerbook (i.e. iCal, address book, iTunes[?]). I have absolutely no idea when it comes to PDAs seeing as I have never had one.

Can anyone help me out?

But serioulsy can't you do all that with an ipod/nano? you can with the Creatives (on windows)

Failing that you can get pretty much any Windows based pda and then there are third parties that have made synchronising software for the Mac, not sure about itunes though.

DONT GET A WINDOWS MOBILE DEVICE

I have owned Macs for over 10 years and I have NEVER come across a third party app that works fully under OSX or classic

I have moved to Palm and everything is good

I dont think you will get anything to sync with iTunes tho, but you can drag and drop with the Palm software

Hope this helps!
