I carry around a laptop as well. But the PDA goes Everywhere I go and is much quicker accessing info - phone nos, errand lists, Calendar. I hate waiting for my computer to boot up when all I want to do is look at my calendar!

VoodooPad Lite (for OS X) is a fantastic piece of free software for storing non-encrypted information. It can export all your notes to iPod Notes, so you can take them with you when you're out and about.

This is probably my _favorite_ piece of software on OS X.

Anyone know of a good Windows equivalent (for those of us who are stuck on MS at work)?
 
I used the trial version of WikidPad (http://www.jhorman.org/wikidPad/), and it was quite good. Not quite the same as VoodooPad in use, but a very similar wiki-style notetaking app. It costs USD$12 to purchase, which is very reasonable. I never ended up buying it because I switched to OS X around that time, and discovered VoodooPad.

I'm a GTD guy using a fully paper-based approach and loving it. :D So most of these Palm suggestions dont apply. After thinking about it for a while, i'm starting to think that I need to store my information in something different than Microsoft Word.

Splash ID comes with a desktop version for Windows or Mac. So if you use a computer at all it could help. I actually use my desktop version 10x more than the one on my Palm. The Palm is really just for reference.
