PDA??

What's a PDA?


Personal Digital Assistant. a hand held computer.


Don't PDA's have weak IR transmitters though?

I can understand why people dislike LCD touchscreen- my HK TC1000 sometimes
drives me nuts (accidentally press the wrong area- or it thinks I did, and I
have to look at the screen) but I like the ability to use custom buttons &
layouts; something which is impossible with a hard-buttoned remote. Unless
the unused hard buttons disappear into the unit when I go into a activity.
;-)

Although most of the time it's OK- just try to cut down on the complexity on
the screen, just have the minimum buttons in a activity.
