    Post PDA Choices

    Hi everyone, I'm wondering what PDA models that have build in serial port. I know many PDAs now are using USB port. But my visual basic program codes to activate passive readers are based on serial port platform.

    Websites and product documentation is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Actually most PDA's dont have serial or USB connections built in, they have their own type of connection which can link to various interfaces using the wires/cradle provided.

    Most PDA makers sell accessories which allow other types of connections. My iPaq came with a USB cradle, but you can buy a serial cradle (or cable) for iPaqs too.

    my IPAQ accepts PCMIA cards, and have used a network card for access.
