Hi,

I am looking for a PDA with keyboard that I can use for updating webpages and internet banking while on the road. It would be great if I can import pictures as well. I had a look on Psions netbook and Sony PEG UX 50 so far. Both not really a perfect fit. Of course I want it to be Mac compatible. Important for me is Internet connectivity and a keyboard.

Someone who has some good suggestions ?

Thanks a lot and best regards

... PDA with keyboard ...

Keyboards are available for Palms and Newtons.

Well, I use a handspring Treo (the old, clamshell, b&w model). It can definitely do all the things you asked, and connects fine w/my Mac. I've heard great things about the newer model (the 600?). Of course, it's also a phone, so it's easy to connect to the Web, but the keyboard is pretty SLOW to use. If you're going to do a lot of typing, you might prefer a PDA with a separate, full-size keyboard.
