PDAs

The electronics revolution has taken a lot of weight off people's shoulders--in the form of enough calendars, address books, notebooks and file folders to stuff a briefcase or handbag. Today, people carry the same data and more, but it's likely to be stuffed into a personal digital assistant or PDA. These handheld computers have two distinct advantages over 'hardcopy': You can fit 10,000 digital pages in the same space as 50 paper pages, and you can add, delete or update any datum without touching the rest of them. That's convenience worth its weight in gold, but at Overstock.com we're committed to gold standards at silver prices.

A PDA handheld may contain a universe of features, including video phone functions, or it might be a basic handheld PC storing contact info, calendar items, alarm clock, calculator, a notebook and a small keyboard for inputting data. Snazzier handheld computers may have a touch screen stylus--simply touch the icon to boot up the desired pocket PC program, or handwriting recognition--the PDA translates written letters into text for files. Other popular features include Bluetooth, allowing hands-free use of your smart phone or Wi-Fi, allowing your handheld PC to wirelessly communicate with the Internet.

A few companies make personal data assistants, while innumerable third party suppliers have office applications, web connections, games, GPS systems and a host of other software available to meet almost any individual handheld need. Choose personal digital assistant features to fit your needs, then decide which PDA has what you want, then come to Overstock.com and get that PDA at a great price. What could be simpler?

Don't forget the pocket PC accessories. A stylish PDA case keeps the PDA safe while making it look cool. A PDA phone requires additional service and cost, but replaces your cell phone. PDA memory cards (the same types used for digital cameras) extend your capacity. PDA cradles, PDA chargers and pocket PC cables make the PDA a lot easier to use. Isn't that why you came to Overstock.com in the first place--to make your life easier and less expensive?
