Smartmobs has a Link to a pretty cool article published by HowStuffWorks about How PDAs work. Even though most of the discussion revolves around a Palm, it's detailed enough to give us Pocket PC users a good overview. So if you've ever wondered how that Pocket PC of yours combines memory, microprocessor, IR port, and LCD touchscreen into one powerful mini-computer, head on over and give their article a read! "You have been carrying around your big notebook/organizer that has your address book, daily planner, to-do lists, memo pads, calendar, project lists and expense reports -- everything that you need to keep your life organized. It's bulky, heavy and stuffed full, but if you don't have it, you're lost. But as you jot down appointments on your calendar or look up phone numbers in your address book, you see other people everywhere -- in business meetings, at the airport, around the supermarket -- scribbling things on a device that is about the size of a small calculator or maybe the size of a paperback book. They have traded their calendars and address books for a personal digital assistant, or PDA, a remarkable, tiny, fully functional computer that you can hold in one hand. And unlike that paper organizer, a PDA can hold your downloaded e-mail and play music."
