I've been reading PCW for over 20 years. The new issue has just dropped through my letter box and they have a group test of PDAs.
Traditionally PCW was always a fan of the Psion 5 and more recently their group tests have been split between palm and pocket pc but this year it's a whole new ball game.
The three devices that they recommend are:
Editors Choice - Ipaq 1940
Highly Commended - Ipaq 5550 (wrongly labelled as a 5500)
Highly Commended - Dell Axim X5 Advanced.
A couple of choice comments:
'..we feel that Palm is slowly dropping behind Pocket pc'
'the savings you can make by opting for the Palm Platform are no longer a factor'
'Recently devices running Palm would cost more than a device on PPC 2003 running the same features.'
Certainly worth a read get out and by the magazine.
