A few days ago I commented about the Celio Redfly adding support for BlackBerrys. I came across that bit of information first while researching to purchase a Celio RedFly myself and then while I’ve been …

Are you still using a Pocket PC and a Cell Phone?

Are you using 3-4 gadgets still? Pocket PC, Phone, MP3 player, etc?

I know many folks just don’t want to have it all on one device. I understand too. You can get a phone with a camera, mp3 player, and more, but there are very few that excel at all the functions. In fact, the Nokia N95 is the only phone I know of that has an excellent camera, decent music player, PDA Fuctions, and actually performs nice as a phone too.

So tell me, are you in or are you out of the convergence game?

Are you ready to converge?

Note: This site has many dedicated Pocket PC users, so I expect a reasonable amount of not ready votes.

    Add a phone to my Dell X51v and I'll be happy. I don't want a tiny, lo-res screen.

    Until they come out with one device that has at least the specs of the x51v that includes a phone I doubt that I will converge. I seem to change phones about every 2 years so that is a problem too. I don't want to have that expense that a convergence device would cost every 2 years.

    I just purchased an XV6800. I've found it is both convenient and clunky. I don't think Windows Mobile integrates well with a phone. To make it functional, I installed several 3rd party applications to fix basic Windows Mobile functions. I will continue to carry my Axim x51v or hx4705 and iPod.

    While I am not opposed to a converged device, the current state of the available devices makes that an exercise in suboptimizing virtually every aspect of each device.

    By choosing separate devices, I can optimize the individual aspects of each device.

    For a Pocket PC I require a touch-screen, WiFi, and an a large enough screen that I can easily see my appointments, read ebooks, etc. Also has to have a docking station so I can sync with my PC.

    For a phone I require something small, can run a week or more with our recharging if I use it about 30 minutes a day and light enough that it doesn't drag my pants down :)

    So far, I haven't found a device that can manage both.

    Hmmm, I just upgraded from my X5 (which I got about 4 months after their debut) and now I have a new x51v,
    I'm still setting it up, and it has been about 2 or 3 weeks.

    As for a phone, I'm using a very simple, reliable SE T637.
    EASY to use, good batter life, and phone calls come in clear.

    I tried moving everything to my Blackberry a few years ago, and to a 'smartphone' more recently. But my iPod is better at music, PSP/DS are better for games, and my beloved ol' iPaq 4355 is such a great organizer / notetaker / utility player. I'd love to converge ... really I would ... but I'm in no rush.
