ANY PALM PILOTS?
As these devices are getting more popular
I would like to start a small forum on the use of Palm Pilots for travel writing while on the road.
I recently purchases a Palm M500 with a folding keyboard and a backup chip. I hope to write on the road and send and check my Emails.
Does anyone have comments or experience with Palm Pilots or other PDA's on the road.
What other accessories (hardware) would make it more practical for travelling.
Is there any downloadable sites (or software) worthwhile to travellers. eg. Lonely Planet offers some city info.
I know that a GPS can be set up to work with the Palm, but are there any good free digital maps available?
IS there good wordprocessing software available for the Palms.
Would it be possible to use the Palm at an internet cafe to check personal email etc. Eg. would I have to download my software on their computers and then plug my palm into the back of their computer somewhere, or could I hook up a modem to my Palm and use something like an AOL international account?
Any information with regards to these questions would be appreciated
Cheers
