What is the hottest PDA at the moment ?

Hi,

I am asking this on behalf of a friend:

He wants to spend up to 250 Euro on a new PDA which should have a color display, camera ?, Windows PC compatibility.

What new products should he look at ?
Any advice is welcome.

Cheers

I recently bought a Dell Axim XS-400 from their outlet site, http://outlet.dell.com for just under $250 and I have been extremely happy with it. It does not have a camera. I don't know how much of a must-have that is for you, but, like built-in wireless, I suspect that you are going to find a camera on the more high-end models.

The Axim is not the smallest PDA out there, but the battery life is phenomenal, which is useful to me on my long, international flights.

the Treo 600 just coming out. I believe there is a GSM version as well as a CDMA one. Runs the Palm OS.
