I can't decide on what type of PDA to get for my clinic setting. I don't
know if palm or pocket PC format is best. I would like to have 5-6 reference
items, at least, on it. Is there a consensus among med students, docs, np
and pa's about which model and format works best, thanks
Scott

The link that Marlof gave you is a good one, there are also a few more that
I cannot find at the moment, but when I do, will post them.
What kind of info are you looking for ? Like a pocket PDR or medical
formulas ? Of the docs that I know, the ones that have to look at alot of
detail (and know Windows well) like my Neurosurgeon goes for the Pocket
PC's, Ipaq 2215 and 4115 are probably the most popular. The Docs that are
not computer literate, seem to go more for Palm which does seem to have more
software for the medical world out there. For me, the Palm OS was just too
simplistic and got boring very fast.
