Are they any good? I need to do word docs with it and yes I cant afford a laptop.
Cheers.

I've got one and it's a pretty useful piece of kit, but i have to admit that now I've got a laptop, I hardly ever use it. If you need to do a lot of typing then it's got a great keyboard, but you'll have to convert Psion Word docs to MSWord before you can use them on your PC. The screen can be a little difficult to read in many lighting conditions and using the backlight shortens battery life considerably.

I think if I was in the market for one now, i'd have a good look at the HP Jordanas or maybe even see about arranging finance on a laptop, because, at the end of the day, a laptop is much much better.
