<DIV>I used a Palm Treo 750 last year on the PCT as my all purpose unit.
I <BR>journaled on it during trips using Word then uploaded them to my
internet journal <BR>while in town. Very easy and I generally had
good cell coverage in resupply <BR>towns. I also loaded GPS software
on the Palm and carried a 2 oz Earthmate <BR>GPS unit (bluetooth).
Generally, I didn't find GPS necessary, but it was <BR>useful in a couple
instances, and I enjoyed marking my camps and other key
<BR>locations. I liked having phone, journaling, GPS, weather,
ebooks, Word (journal) <BR>and Excel (trip and resupply plans), as well as
low res camera and video, all <BR>on one
unit. <BR> <BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
