To make it easier to select the right device for you, NextBus recommends the following:

• If wireless e-mail & paging are your primary needs: We recommend the RIM two-way messaging units. These devices are simple to use, and offer e-mail, paging, basic organizer functions, and PC synchronization. The RIM pagers are the best device if you will be regularly enter text into your handheld; the small keyboard is remarkably quick to type on.

• If you would like a multifunction handheld: The PalmOne Treo series can't be beat for flexibility. In addition to NextBus, there are thousands of free and low cost programs you can download. Text entry is done with a special handwriting recognition system.
