Treo 650 phone palm is sweet.. but i would go with a sony version most likely or in my case i went with a Pocket Pc... Ipaq 2215..

Go to the local stores like best buy or Compusa even better and have her look at them and check them out you can get a nice sony for a good price but it is really a personal decision so take her and say that your looking for one too or a new one or whatever.....

my experienceis that they are not good i picked it out for you gifts in other words so make sure she is part of the decision.....

Sprint PPC-6700, It is a phone, PDA, has windows Mobile, BlueTooth, Wifi, and all the other goodies. I got my wife this about 2 months ago and she loves it.

another vote for the treo 650. why carry a pda AND a phone, when you can get one item that does both extremely well?? i loooove mine...

Does anyone else remeber when "palm pilot" was what you called one of your buddies for being too "busy"...

just wondering

yes friend has a treo, it is very nice... read that the new 2006 version treos will be dumping the Palm OS and shifting the the microsoft PPC version...
being that i have been a PPC user for 5 years .. thats when i will make the jump.

cant beat it hardware wise right now.. phone, PDA, camera, ect.. its awesome..... you can also find them unlocked on ebay for around 400$ new great deal still warrantied by treo..
but ill wait till they go PPC..

and yes please do consider the phone PDA they are awesome...

Best Bang for buck

You can buy music online and sync it to this one. Surf with 802.11b. Store and view pictures of her husbands Jeep. I have used both PALM and PocketPC operating systems. The PocketPC is far better.

Quick and agile: The iPAQ™ rx1955 lets you enjoy music, videos, and Internet applications on the go—with control at your fingertips. The Samsung SC32442 300MHz processor and the 96MB of built-in memory (including 32MB of SDRAM) give this PDA plenty of speed and agility.

Color display: The easy-to-read display features a 240 x 320 pixel screen, 64K colors and a sharp 0.24 mm dot pitch that displays your pictures, videos and web pages with great clarity and detail. This 3.5" QVGA display also features an LED backlight, landscape and portrait modes and TFT active matrix technology.

Wireless-ready: This PDA features 802.11b wireless technology so you can stay connected on the go. Thanks to HP ProtectTools—as well as 128-bit WEP and WPA encryption—your wireless communication will remain safe and secure.

Enjoy music and videos: This PDA supports MP3 (or WMA or WMV) formats, so you can transfer fresh music and video onto your iPAQ as your mood dictates. The 3.5 mm headphone jack lets you listen privately in stereo via headphones (sold separately).

Smart design: This PDA features four programmable quick-launch buttons and a five-way joystick so you can navigate effortlessly.

Expansion slot: The built-in Secure Digital (SD) slot makes it easy to introduce extra memory or new games and software.

Built-in voice recorder: Have a flash of brilliance? This PDA features a voice record button, a microphone and speaker so you can record a voice message instantly—even email it to a friend.

Software: This PDA features Microsoft® Windows Mobile™ 5.0 for Pocket PC, Premium Edition operating system, plus mobile versions of Microsoft Outlook®, Word®, Excel®, PowerPoint®, Windows Media® Player and Internet Explorer®.

I'll sell you a Palm 31 that I have, I don't have the accessories or anything but you can get it online or in stores. I just want $50 for it. Goto www.palm.com to check it out. No sweat if that isn't what you want.
