Lightbulb Personal digital assistants (PDAs)

Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are handheld devices that were originally designed as personal organizers, but became much more versatile over the years. PDAs have many uses: calculating, use as a clock and calendar, playing computer games, accessing the Internet, sending and receiving e-mail, use as a radio or stereo, video recording, recording notes, use as an address book, GPS and use as a spreadsheet. Newer PDAs also have both color screens and audio capabilities, enabling them to be used as mobile phones (smartphone), web browsers or portable media players. Many PDAs can access the Internet, intranets or extranets via Wi-Fi, or Wireless Wide-Area Networks (WWANs). One of the most significant PDA characteristic is the presence of a touch screen.

The currently major PDA operating systems are:

Palm OS - owned by PalmSource
Windows Mobile (Pocket PC), (based on the Windows CE kernel) - owned by Microsoft
RIM for the BlackBerry - owned by Research In Motion
Many operating systems based on the Linux kernel - free (not owned by any company) These include:
GPE - Based on GTK+/X11
OPIE user interface/Qtopia - based on Qt/E Qtopia is developed by Trolltech, OPIE is a fork of Qtopia developed by volunteers
Symbian OS (formerly EPOC) owned by Ericsson, Motorola, Panasonic, Nokia, Samsung, Siemens and Sony Ericsson

PDA's were the "hyped" gadgets when they were introduced. ultracomputers are now replacing them, ur mobile phone for example comes with loads of goodies that is sure to cast a spell on you, the nokia n series, or the iPhone, the world is converging ! n its really cool !!
