Wi-Fi enabled PDA. Here’s my latest toy: the Toshiba Pocket PC e740. The e740 is the first PDA with built-in 802.11b connectivity. This little neat thing set me back about DKK 7.500 including VAT. The reason that I have given up on one of my most sacred principles – to stick with the PALM OS – is simply because I had to get a glimpse of the future where we all will access the Internet at Wi-Fi hotspots with our PDA. And it works. At least accessing my home Wi-Fi network was a breeze. I am very disappointed though that the Internet Explorer included in the Pocket PC OS is so primitive: It only allows me to access unsecured web-sites. Thus, I cannot check my web-mail etc. This has to solved.
