How many devices do you carry?

I've always carried a Palm (Tungstun E2, now) and a cheapie cell phone. Got a new Treo 700w but there are some things that I like my Palm (with some 3rd party software that I've purchased) for better. It also has a larger screen.

So would I be the only one that carried a smartphone for the contacts and email and a Palm for lists and other stuff? :-?

I don't know, but I guess I'm wondering why you didn't get a Treo 700p instead of the 700w. :)

Separate Phone and PDA

I have a Nokia dumb phone and a brand-new iPAQ 2790. When I was researching the PDA purchase, I considered a phone/pda combo but decided against them for two reasons: a) screen size and b) processing capability

So my system consists of
- laptop with Outlook for e-mail, contacts, tasks, projects-as-contacts, digital reference filing system
- iPAQ as backup and mobile system with contacts, tasks, e-mail, selected digital files
- Handyshopper (free! PPC app) for checklists and other useful information
- paper filing system at home

Just the BlackBerry for me, unless you count the Levenger Circa as well! ;-)
 
Cheap phone and a PDA

I have a three year old Nokia mobile phone and an old Toshiba e-830 pda. I am a bit out of the crowd--most of my associates are totally into Blackberries and the newer MS based smartphones. I prefer to keep them separate given my propensity for using these things as tools as opposed to cherished beacons of my technology savvy. BTW: I have also been known to throw a filofax in there as well when I suffer PDA frustration.
 
Software for Windows CE

I carry a cell and a pocket pc with access to my work email. I could use a windows ce client that sync's with my outlook GTD software.

Tablet PC and Treo 650

My Treo is with me at all times so that I have access to my contacts, email, task lists, calendar, projects, and a place to jot down thoughts and ideas when they strike me. I take my Tablet PC with me most places, and it provides great flexibility for me to do just about anything I need to do with it. I especially enjoy using MindManager on it.
 
I cary an iPAQ 2795 with me everywhere I go, and also a cheap Audiovox cell. Of course, my Notetaker wallet is all I carry for a wallet now, so that's never too far away either.

I hope to move to a Treo soon to consolidate my gear.
 
I carry both a Treo 700P and a palm T/X. Always have carried two, either the T/X or a LD with my Treo. Guess I just like the larger screen for doing things on.
 
I carry a Motorola v710 cell phone, and a Tungsten E.

I am looking to upgrade to a 700p when they are finally released in Canada - they'll be here in time for Christmas, I'm sure, but I probably won't upgrade until January/February.
 
I carry a Blackberry 7130 and a MacBook Pro. The new Pocketmac 4.0 is a great way to fulling sync your Mac and Balckberry. Much better than the previous version.
