I had one and honestly didn't like it. I didn't use it for email at all, just didn't want to pay for the internet package. I planned to use it for scheduling, but I have since found out that I like to see a whole month at once. The PDA is just too small for that. Also, it would take forever to enter something in, and at shows I would feel like I was wasting others time. Mine was also a touch screen and I decided I really did not like that! I really missed just having the numbers to dial right there.
Of course all this is personal preference, but definitely think about those preferences before you buy. (I was in a two year contract with my provider and had to wait that whole time for another phone!)

I have the Blackberry Pearl. While I don't have the sync part figured out yet, I do LOVE the calendar feature. It has all of my appointments in it. It's so easy for the kids stuff. While at a doc appt, I just whip out my phone & put the next appt in the calendar. I'm just too absentminded to remember where I put the card to remember to put it on the family calendar at home.
