Basically my question is what my title is. I was intersted to know what devices people carry with them on a daily basis..

Since the G1 has been released my Tilt has become a windows mobile pda only.

So Everyday

G1
Sony digital camera
Usb Drive 128mb for small documents
16gb Ipod Touch
Jabra Bluetooth bt8040
Helio Mysto (work line)

and occasionally my tilt for when i need to edit office documents until something better is released for the G1:)

I always think that I have to carry only ONE device that cover all my needs instead of bringing with me an Ipod, Nextel, Cell phone, beeper, PDA, etc.......

So when I first saw O2 Exec (Universal) in 2005 I decided that this device will be the only one I really need for my work and entertainment, and till some REAL succesor appears I will continue with Uni as my main device!!!
And when a succesor appears I will carry only ONE device.

Hi,

I only carry one phone with me, apart from my laptop, when I am at work, of course.

This means that the phone has many tasks:

- act as a mobile phone
- give me access to e-mails, browser and Messenger
- entertain me: movies, ebooks, games, emulator
- keep all my contacts, tasks, appointments

I own several phones, all able to do the job and I enjoy switching between them:

- Universal
- Blue Angel
- VDA GPS (aka Toshiba G710)
- HP iPaq 514 Voice Messenger

The Blue Angel I don't use any more, since I got the Universal. The screen needs to much care against accidents and the resolution is not so good in comparison.

And yes, the Universal is the phone I like most. It has everything I need: great screen, great battery endurance, fast, keyboard,...

I only take the HP 514 with me, when I need a tiny phone or when I go to some rougher outdoor events.

I use the VDA GPS when I am mainly driving, because the keyboard is very ergonomic to be used whilst driving (i.e. type "D" and get all recent numbers from contacts starting with D). It is also a very discrete phone (for meetings), looks expensive (it wasn't) and does not give you a nerd-tag right away (as opposed to the Universal). And of course it is nice to have built-in GPS.

Cheers,
vma

HTC Trinity as primary phone
HTC Alpine for email, software only runs on WM2003, well the version I have does.

Creative Zen Touch, 20Gb
Fuji FinePix
8Gb Flash Drive

Usually only the Trinity goes out and about most days. It has enough music for the odd quiet moment. and the camera is good enough for snap shots.

XDA Stellar and that's it (sometimes my laptop if I'm doing 'real' work).

I run an 8 gig card and use the phone as a phone, pda, sat nav, mp3 player, games machine, push e-mails, etc etc etc. The only real downside is using it as a phone in the car when also using sat nav and someone calls when you need the map the most!

My battery is usually dead by 3pm if I have a hard day out of the office, so I have an HTC brand car charger (nothing else keeps up).

My T-Mobile Vario II does most of my daily work but I tend to have a laptop with me on week days as well which the Vario acts as a modem for most of the time (unlimited-ish HSDPA with WnW; why then pay for hotspots as well?!)

Because the Vario is doing so much every day as it acts as my phone, email access etc I tend to always have my 80gb Zune to entertain me on the commute.

Back at home I've just put my O2 XDA IIs back into service. Since I flashed it to WM 6.1 and started running the developer preview of Windows Sideshow on it, it makes an amazing remote control for my Media Centre PC in the lounge.

I carry my ASUS EEE 701 and HTC Diamond if I'm going out by car, otherwise, Diamond only.

The EEE is very small and runs real windows. It does the heavy lifting wherever possible.
