What do you use your WM device for?

We've been thinking..... we're all fans of our beloved Windows Mobile devices, and we all use them for many varied tasks....

So we thought it might be a good idea to hold a poll on what we all use them for!

Re: What do you use your WM device for?

Oh the GPS related application does inlude; navigation, geocaching, speed monitoring, etc.

Task management should also cover standard WM tasks (natively or via third party PIm application) or a non-native application like Listpro, etc.

Re: What do you use your WM device for?

I could have ticked most of those options!

Restricted myself to those I find myself doing regularly or exclusively with my WM devices

Re: What do you use your WM device for?

My WM device is a PDA without a phone. If there are several others with such devices, it may distort the poll as far as phoning and texting is concerned.

Re: What do you use your WM device for?

I am sure we can allow for that, because in reality anyone with a PDA/phone is going to use it for calls etc anyway.
