Calling all PDA users
Well I had a crappy Palm Zire before that I used for stuff like my work schedule and writing down little things I want to remember, and I'd put books on it and read them at work and such. Anyways, yesterday I got a smokin deal on a Sony Clie NX70V that I couldn't pass up.
Anyways, what are some things that you use your PDA for? Can you think of any good reference websites that wouldn't have to be updated often to be useful?
One clever thing I did with my old one was use Plucker to get whats playing at all the local theatres, it would automatically update every friday when new movies came out, and the next time I HotSyncd I would have all the latest movies. Just little things like that or anything else you use it for.
**Preferable using free software or software that costs money that you are willing to send me

I had a Palm Zire 72 which I used while I was selling cars over the summer, it was useful for writing down stock numbers, tracking customer contacts, etc. But as a student I have no use for it so I sold it on ebay.
But, if you like to have lots of reading material at the ready, check out AvantGo. Lots of websites have "channels" which provide a bunch of content and each time you hotsync it updates the articles and such. So you can ward off boredom a bit with that.
