So I have been looking at PalmPilot computers so that I can carry around my personal and work schedule as well as phone numbers, etc. I count hand-held computers as the reason I got more organized several years ago.
Technology is fun.
Getting organized is not. Pairing the two makes an unpleasant project more palatable. In the beginning, hand-held computers were pretty much the electronic equivalent of a paper daytimer. Today they do much more. Besides the organizer functions, hand-held computers have the capability to download programs from the Internet via a desktop computer.
