Don Sorcinelli our friend from BostonPocketPC.com has taken a 5 day voyage replacing his desktop PC with a Pocket PC. Read the writeup at Pocket PC Magazine to find out how well it went. Ever since I first became involved with Pocket PCs in early 2000, I've wondered if it's possible to totally replace a desktop PC with one of these powerful little handhelds. I've been asked, and have discussed it with others for the last four years; but up to this point, everything's been speculation. I've used it and nothing else on short trips. But this was for basic Internet and e-mail access, as well as simple document review. Until quite recently, I've never felt that I could effectively complete all my work-related tasks on a Pocket PC.
Very interesting! I've often wondered about that same thing, but always fall back on the gaming aspect. I couldn't get along without my screamin' PC for all the games!
It's nice to read articles that tell you that a PPC can do virtually anything a PC can do, however it's one thing to be capable but quite another to want to do it all the time. I use Excel spreadsheets frequently and even if you can use Excel or another similar application on a PPC, I would never want to make the PPC-sized version my only approach.
