I use a Psion 56K Travel Modem (was sold in the US by Diamond under the mako
brand)
This Infrared Modem works with all PDAs I have (Revo, Jornada, Clie and
Zaurus)
You can find one at Ebay. Or if you want a new one you can get the 3Jtech
which is both
IRDA and Serial .
Only problem with infrared modems is that you can't move your PDA around
much because
IRDA is a 'line-of-sight' kind of connection.
If the your future PDA has a CF slot you can use a CF card modem with that.
Serial (RS232) modems are tricky to set up with the more recent PDAs if they
work at all.
Good luck!
