"We recently experimented with two of the most popular wireless Internet devices, the Palm VII Connected Organizer ($449) from 3Com and Research in Motion's (RIM) 850 Wireless Handheld device ($399) using service from Go America...The RIM 850, on the other hand, is a totally different experience...If you can justify the cost of wireless e-mail, we found the RIM device with Go America service the best by a mile..." read more »

"My company is using the GoAmerica version of this and provided us with the RIM 957 model, the exact one sold to Compaq to market as the H1100.Instant email, sync with your Outlook calendar, notes, task, and contacts...keypad, no wand to use.We also have the internet service so you can get instant news, stock quotes, etc.Gotta get it and use it to beleive how great it is.One downside...you cannot share data like Palm Pilots - you know, like the commercial where two people point their pda's at each other and swap numbers.Give it 5 stars..." read more »
