Most of the software on this list is either free or available for a minimal fee.
Most recently Smartphones have begun to support many of the functions of PDAs with the addition of telephone service, email, and web browsing. There are Android operating system-based Smartphones, Blackberry operating system-based Smartphones, Palm operating system-based (Palm OS) PDAs and Smartphones, the iPhone and Microsoft-based Pocket PCs (Windows Mobile) made by HP, Dell and others. The result is a much wider variety of devices to choose from requiring more research on the part of the consumer.
There are websites which offer overviews of the everchanging world of handheld computing many with tutorials on getting started with your unit.
