Looking for a dirt cheap PDA type device with WiFi

[KKY]

I was wondering if guys can give me some suggestions.

Things I need:
WiFi with WPA
Internet browsing
Runs Pocket PC or Windows Mobile
At least 64MB
Color touch screen

Would be nice to have:
SD slot
USB 2.0 connection
Rotating screen orientation
Good battery life
No blackberry type keypad

The keyword is cheap. I don't need any other bells and whistles. Used stuff is fine.

I'd consider GSM phones too if they're dirt cheap.

I'm mainly going to use it for reading PDFs and playing stupid games.

Thanks!

hm..I have a utstarcom 6700 thats basically brand new (warranty replacement, but never used it) if you want something like that, but its also a phone. or do you want just a pda, no phone??

Yeah, to keep the price down, I'm mainly looking for just a PDA with wifi. I don't plan to join telus any time soon. So a CDMA phone would be of little use to me.

You seem to be on the right track as far as meeting my needs though. The big question is how much?

Get this and just don't activate the phone. When you slide the screen up to access the keyboard underneath, the screen even changes from portrait to landscape. Pretty innovative for its time 3 years ago. I think it has Wi-Fi.

it does have wifi, I have one and upgraded it to WM6.1 only problem is that the battery life is little toi none when wifi is enabled, I might get 15min usage out of it before the battery is dead.....who knows tho just could be my battery.

Thanks for the suggestion. But the Apple iWhatever does not meet my most important criteria.

There are a bunch of different ones made by HP (the iPAQ line)

As well as Asus (MyPal line)

How cheap is cheap?

I just bought a GPS for $152 brand new on sale. It turns out you can unlock it and its just Windows CE in there and you can run whatever on it as well as access wifi with an appropriate SD card.

If you don't have an in-car GPS then maybe this is one of those "bells and whistles" that may be worthwhile to you.

I got the Mio C520.
