if I am pre-emptorily vanquished by a moderator, then there will be no hard feelings.
However many of us are cursed by having a mobile phone so I thought I might get some useful feedback.
You may recall I asked about PDAs some months back. Well I bought one and it works well. Problem is it has flash memory, and I am a little irregular about remembering to charge it up. After spending 2 weeks in the bush (sorting out pipe routes, Paul), I found I had lost the lot by the time I returned to civilisation. As of yet, nobody seems to have thought of pinching the hard drive out of an iPod and putting it in a PDA.
So I thought I might get a mobile phone with built in PDA because I seem to remember to charge up mobile phones. The Sony Ericsson P900/910i looks pretty good (and not too large) although I have heard that MS Outlook compatibility is limited and reliability is not that great.
I have had a good run with Nokia but they seem to be struggling to keep up and dont have a direct equivalent. Prefer GSM. I like camera, outlook compat, bluetooth, touchscreen, voice rec, etc, but indestructibility in a compact size is probably the most important.

Can anyone offer any recommendations or cautions?

Thanks in advance
