I already have a PalmV PDA with PalmOS 3.5. I never use it. I practically have absolutely no need for an organizer. Yet, I wanna buy a new one. That geek gene in me (that my mother unsuccessfully tried to kill over the years) what really wants is a "truly mobile PC" that just isn't a laptop. So, for the last few days I was shopping around the Internet for a new PDA (preferably a PocketPC this time) that would fit the kind of thing I am looking for. I was... horrified to find out that what I need isn't... invented yet.

My Palm M105 is nice, but it lacks the speed, RAM and features I'd like. And after running across the PocketDOS emulator for Windows CE website a few days ago, my quest for a new PDA is in earnest. (You can run DOS and DOS programsgames on a Windows CE device with PocketDOS.)
I started looking for a PDA that had a built-in camera awhile ago. The new Sony CLIÉ PEG-TJ27 would be nice for about $200, but it runs Palm OS 5.2, so no PocketDOS.
I found a nice bundle on DELL's website that includes the Axium X3, a digital camera, an Atari game card and a leather case for about $300 after discounts and tax. It probably serves my requirements, except the Axium X3i is tempting, having more RAM and built-in Wi-fi for $100 more. But a coworker says that the DellIndia phone support he's gotten for his Axium was dubious after he discovered the Wi-fi component was not working in the new unit (he finally got a replacement that worked).
