pda phone with stylus data entry rosenmarsh 10-06-2006

I am looking for the above. The only one I have come across is the
handspring 180g. But I cannot find any for sale at the moment. I would
prefer a palm/handspring as I already have a Handspring visor and the
backup program on my computer but it is not the priority. I just want
something compact (the size of the 180g is fine) to fit in my pocket
and under =A360 - I am fine buying second hand. And I don't care about
email/web compatibility. Most products seem to have keyboard only and
no pen data entry - perhaps you can let me know other pda/phone that
have stylus data entry.

Many thanks

Matthew

Any Pocket PC Phone Edition device will have cell phone, PDA
functions, and stylus input. Maybe a bit above your price range,
especially new. And some are very likely larger than you would like.
But here are some comparisons, starting with the newest:

Sony Ericsson P910i, although it's a bit long in the tooth. I suspect they
have newer models by now. But the handwriting recognition is great.
