Default PDA Advice

Is anyone clued-up on the latest PDA's? Im looking to spend around £200ish, but not really sure where to start, the Dell X51 looks reasonable but I really want to use it as a mobile phone also.. I think Id prefer microsoft windows mobile V5, as I presume this is compatible with MS office. I also want to surf the net via Wi-Fi..

Any suggestions appreciated

They're all compatible with office (PPC os 2003 etc)

I got an Ipaq HW6515 (now been superceded, no doubt) - but it's got built in GPS, WIFI (6517 upwards - I got a seperate WIFI card) and phone (sync'd to your Outlook addy book) And it's also got a proper keyboard (at thex expense of a smaller screen)

I love mine - never thought I'd use it as much as I do, but I've got TomTom on in + other GPS orienteering packages.

Great bit of kit.

O2 Mini XDA S - it's got almost everything!

£80 + £16 a month from my local O2 shop.

Very pleased with it.
