I'm torn, I start rotations in July and I would like to get a PDA to make myself more efficient, I can't decide which one I should get. (Note: I'm not going to use my PDA as a phone, I'll only use it with WIFI)
Apparently the new software development kit is released for the I-touch in June and it will have epocrates on it. The I-touch looks easier to use, has more memory, and will likely be more suitable to non-doctor fun stuff that I could use when I'm on vacation. (I'm not the kinda person that will ultimately use my I-touch to screw off in the hospital).
The Palm TX seems to be the SDN PDA gold standard, but Palm's market share has fallen badly this year, the memory is atrocious, and it doesn't seem as easy to nav and use as an I-touch. However it can get epocrates on it right now.
So I guess I'm thinking I should wait till June, get the I-touch when epocrates comes out for it, and get ready to roll in rotations.
My question to you is what do you think? Am I missing something? Are there other programs I should be worried about getting? Any big drawbacks of either PDA that I haven't mentioned? Please advise....
