PDA might be finished in the US, but not in other parts of the world... You'd be surprised how many of those you can see on Tokyo's metro.
In the US, you're never in a situation where you really need a PDA. You're in your car, at home, in the office, or with friends. In all of these cases you do not need a PDA.
PDA's are great when you ride public transport, like I do in Japan. I can prepare my emails, my todo list, my calendar, check my trains, learn japanese... while riding the train, and that's really usefull. Cell phone screen is too small to do any of that. And I see many other people who also type away on their PDA, 2/3 in each car...
Well, I bought a zire 71 a few months ago, and the battery life is not that great... I love it's beautiful screen, the camera is great, larger memory than my old pam (an m100) but battery life is an issue.
With my m100 I could go on trip for 10 days and use my palm frequently, the battery could hold for months.
With the zire 71, I last 4/5 days. It's just not enought. The increased processor speed is not that usefull, what I need was a nice screen and larger memory, and it comes at a price: battery life is not as good.
