Dpes anyone have a site where I can find high end palmpiolts/pda's?

Theres usually sites where they give you a list of all the shops that have the product and they list it from cheapest to highest.

I've seen those kind of websites from mp3's to dvd players. And they compare all prices. Anyone know which sites these are? Doesn't matter if it's US or Canadian.

What are you looking for, exactly? Phone-PDA's, Pocket PC's, Palm units, what? There are different sites for different types/

Here's one for Windows based devices:

Not PHone-PDA (because It'll be used in the UK 90% of the time).

Whats the diff between Pocket PC's, Palm units?
Can't you do almost the same with both?

PS. your link doesn't work.

expansys?
but that's not a price comparison site, and they're kind of expensive, but it gives you a gd idea of what's out there and the price range
you might want to get them in the UK tho 'cause in the US/asia/europe it's just must faster than canada:thumbsdow

Really like the Dell X30, but it's Dell!

Its between the Tungsten T3, T5. It will most likely be the T5.
It wll be used as a Navigation system for atleast a few hours a day, so that probably is the main purpose for now.

Don't let the fact that it's made by Dell affect your decision. Surprisingly, they are actually very well made devices and reasonably priced too. The Dells made a lot of Palm users switch to PPC because Palms are really lacking options compared to similar priced devices.

I really wanted to get the T3 when it came out, but I heard so many reviews about it's poor battery life and other problems, I passed on it. Plus a lot of the T3's I played with have that annoying high pitched whine when the screen's on. When the T5 came out, that was totally unexpected for me since I heard no real speculations of a new Palm device coming out at the time. Again, after reading more reviews about it, I passed on this one too. As much as I love Palm devices, for the same price you can get a fully loaded PPC. The only thing keeping me from getting a PPC is because I dislike the Windows interface so much. I prefer Palm OS. I'm not anti-Windows or anything, I just can't get used to the ugly interface! Hahaha!

The Palm LifeDrive looks veeery tempting to get with the 4gb harddrive and built in wireless, but $700 is much too steep for me. Traditionally, Palm releases new models in October. I'm hoping they'll have something within the $500 range with built-in wireless. But I doubt it, with the recent release of the LifeDrive and T5.

Palm LifeDrive is THE one, but the navigation program we have (TomTom Navigation 5) isn't compatable with LifeDrive (according to their website).

Could still go with Dell but their customer service is oh so terrible. But hopefully never need to speak to customer service. This is almost as bad a picking a MP3 player haha.
