define "good"

if its only for addresses and phone numbers, my 2-3 year old palm m100 would be fine.

ahh I found it. Its called the RIM Blueberry. I actually saw this on Opera's "Favorite things" episode, where she gave it to her audience. It's VERY user friendly (great for women like your mom) and fairly cheap.

for some reason i cant stand the audiences of those particular shows. most of them know the only reason they are there is to get all that free shit. but at the same time i wish i was there. h:

well they do get annoying about how much they scream, but they don't know before hand that they were selected, so they think they were chosen for some random show. I'd be excited if I got a couple grand worth of stuff that I could sell on ebay :rick:
