pda or cell phone? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. macdingolinger (1177)   ranked 594 out of 6,784 in cell phone4 months ago

I was in prison ministry for awhile and I could not take a cell phone in so I opted to use a pda because I had an entire Bible program and a couple of resource books on it. Now that I am not in the prison ministry any more I really don't even use my pda and I'm thinking of selling it. I did use the oraganizer on it until recently. So... I have kept a pretty simple cell phone until now. So .. do you use the features on your phone enough to make it worth the extra money? Pda's still sell for around $300 which is what I paid for mine.... do you think I'll have any luck trying to sell it?

I am not sure if it will sell or not. It seems that when one has a blackberry, one has to have a certain type of service, like personal plan and one can't have a family plan, I know this based on a friend wanting a blackberry and she couldn't cause she did not have a personal plan with unlimited minutes, date and texting (text, picture and video).
I believe her company sprint has those at 100 but for one phone it was not what she was looking for.
I wish you good luck.

I don't know either. Since they are still selling for around $300 I figured I could get half that much out of it... maybe! I just don't use it too much anymore!

I haven't checked out the blackberries and iphones to see about plans and availability... guess I should look into it!

Thanks!!

macdingolinger,

I think before you decide to sell off your PDA and switch over to a cellphone, you should consider if you could appreciate or be comfortable with the smaller display screen of a cellphone. I find this to be the dominating fact for PDA users to switch.

Also, there are some relatively useful functionality of a PDA that are absent in most of the average cellphones in the market i.e. WiFi. which is one of the very useful and much needed functions.

I can understand the concern of lugging a bulky piece of communication equipment just to make a call but I feel this can be easily overcome with a useful accessory called a bluetooth headset where you can pick up or make a call without any hassle. Besides, it is also a much cheaper than a new cellphone and still be able to maintain quality communication.

So, I feel you should consider the above concerns before the switch and hope that you will be able to decide from there.

Take care and have a nice day.

Thank you for your thoughtful answer and good advice. I will consider. I have not really used the wi-fi too much on the pda. I have used it a time or two though to look something up quickly. I haven't found it to be all it said it was in the advertisements about the device. Maybe I will keep it for awhile and see. Thanks

macdingolinger,

You are welcome.

If you had this PDA for sometime already then I think it would be wise to make a visit to your nearest authorized service agent to upgrade its latest software or drivers. This will probably settle some of the evident glitches you found while using your PDA.

Again, I am just glad to be of help here.
