Hey, well I am new to the world of PDA's and I am in the market for one as well. I am from Australia and I am looking for a PDA in my price range of $400-$650. I have good reviews about the iPAQ 3715, but I have also heard about the 6315. I want a PDA with a phone but the 6315 is to dear for me. So I am wondering if there is a way to get phone capabilities on the 3715, or is there a PDA with a a phone and is in my price range with the features of the 3715?
There isn't a way to get full phone functionality on the 3715 that offers the same level of ease of use and integratation as a real Pocket PC Phone. Enfora does make a CF card solution but that iPAQ doesn't have a CF slot and of course, you're adding to the overall price tag when buying the Enfora too. http://www.mobiletechreview.com/tips/Enfora_GSM_CF_card.htm
I'm not all that familiar with the phone selection in AU, nor the carrier subsidies offered there. Perhaps a version of the JAM is available for less that the iPAQ 6315. http://www.mobiletechreview.com/i-mate_JAM.htm
