I loved being able to have the information with me when I was on the road.  I loved being able to cross access the information in my address book with the mapping system on my GPS. I hated having to enter information with that little metal stick that never wanted to hit the right keys.  One of my friends suggested I try a PDA Portable Keyboard, some of which are available for a low price. The first keyboard I tried was one recommended for my PDA but what I found was that the person writing the recommendation was either a child or had a growth hormone deficiency that effect his fingers. My second keyboard was a full size model and now I am happy.
