RE: [LegacyUG] PDA Question

[Linda Bischoff]

I have a Palm pilot, T3 is the model. I also have a new laptop, purchased a couple of years AFTER I got the palm pilot. My new laptop has Windows XP media edition. I tried to use the palm pilot with it, but found out that Palm doesn’t support Windows XP media edition!  I have used it with Windows home and Windows XP, so needless to say, I am very disappointed.  Be sure you find out if what ever brand you chose, it will work with the windows or mac or whatever operating system you have.

Good brands?  Ones to avoid?  All information much appreciated. I always thought taking a laptop to the library would be the way to go, but last time I had to find a place to perch there with an Interlibrary Loan book, there wasn't a single place with a flat spot for a laptop, not to mention the obvious drawbacks of taking it. Thanks, Mary         I also use a PDA with Pocket Genealogist.  I take it to places of research when I go.  If you have a PDA, you could do the same at the reunion and people could give you corrections you make on the PDA then later transfer the corrections into your Legacy on the laptop.         Hope that helps.
