Your pocket pc

Post your PDA here

I just found the charger for mine and I'm freaking happy as hell!

I have the Clie PEG-T615C and its really nice, specs:

I can't express how happy I am right now. It was missing the little charger cord, and I couldn't find it for forever. I stood up and looked in my computer desk drawer thinking "Its not gonna be this easy", then I found a cord that looked exactly like the one I was missing and I was like ".....no way..." and it was it

Anyways, post your PDA specs here, cause PDAs are cool like that.

My pocket PC weighs about 10 lbs, 20 if you count the Monitor, doesn't fit in my pocket, and sits on my desk.

I have an iPod Video...

hp rx3715
Pocket PC = 1337
Too bad Terminal Services doesn't support 16bit displays, so you can't use DirectX over it... Stupid MS...
I want to get a new one.
I have a 2gb SD card with 3 movies on it (all of which happen to have Vin Diesel in them oddly enough)

Definitely
Think of it as De-finitely (finetly, as in, a finite amount)

I don't have a Pocket PC, I don't see the point.

Micorosft Pocket PCs have 320x240 (or 640x480) screen resolution.
They are touch screens.
Windows Media Player
Word
Excel
PowerPoint (Windows Mobile 5 only)
-Photo editing
Photoviewing
Web surfing w/ flash
WiFi
Bluetooth (on most models)
Built in speaker (not used too often for music, though, most are mono)
Plays tons of great commercial quality games
IR
-Universal remote
Control your Windows XP (I don't about Vista yet) PC from it using Terminal Services (I can use 3ds max with OpenGL, I can also use photoshop rather easily, but I have a sufficient photo editor built into mine)
Plus, it's got all the PDA stuff
Calendar
Notes
Contacts
Outlook

The only thing most Pocket PCs don't have is a bunch of internal memory. If they built in 30gb of space and made Terminal Services work with DirectX, I'd never physically touch my notebook ever again, I'd even play Halo on my Pocket PC.

(- denotes feature is not included by default, but what can you expect from Microsoft?)

EDIT:
I forgot about maps! Plus, with the new Microsoft Streets and Trips, you can use the Bluetooth GPS unit with a Pocket PC and Pocket Streets, so it's also a GPS (plus there are various other GPSs available)

And, I can't forget Pocket PC Phone Editions! Sprint was a major pioneer with these, they are pretty much Pocket PCs with GPRS receivers.

[Gasp! GPS isn't in Firefox's dictionary! Head for the hills!]

EDIT (again):
I also forgot that i have a TI-83+ emulator on my Pocket PC, therefore making it a fully functional graphing calculator as well. I remember when the UMPCs came out and I'm like "Wtf, I can do all of that on my PPC!" (except play Halo, speaking of which, did anyone ever get one of those and try and play Halo on it?)

Wow, Um, Try $300 (that's two zeros)
That doesn't count (The Doom thing) because you can do that to the Pocket PC doom player as well. And wtf is shovel ware? Are you calling ppcs shit?

EDIT:
Also, the highest priced Pocket PC is $700

EDIT (again):
There are plenty of Game Boy emulators for the Pocket PC as well, in fact, I'll go get one, but there aren't any good* GameBoy Games

*by today's standards

One too many zeros. Anyway, I don't really have a Pocket PC/iPod/PDA. So... yeah.

*uses Jedi mind tricks*
*You want to get a Pocket PC, preferably an HP, they're the best!*

One zero is a big difference.
If I said I had 2 cough*balls*cough, that's perfectly normal, if I said I had 20, then, Um, yeah, that would be kinda weird.

Come on Inferno, think up a snazzy retaliation, I love an enraged debate!
