It's according to what you load on your PDA. I have ePocrates Essentials, Stedman's, Sanford Guide, MedCalc, PEPID EM, Washington Manual, Pocket EM, AvantGo, Salling Clicker (controls your Mac via Bluetooth), AOL Instant Messenger, Quicken, and Splash Shopper installed on mine. I'm using the standard memory on my T5 (256 MB?), with exception to the Washington Manual. It came installed on an SD card.
Also, I forgot... the Tungsten xx is around the corner. Take a look at palminfocenter.net.

I have basically every free program there is, and most of them are quite small. Even my epocrates (full suite - 3 month trial subscription) only takes about 16 Mb. I worried at first, cause I only have a 256 Mb SD card and whatever comes built into the Dell X50. But, I don't think I'll come close to filling that up.
Now if you like music on your PDA, that will suck up the space quite quickly, and you should probably go bigger.
BTW, Sams Club has 1 Gb SD for $79.

nop, no music! would have the mini-library and probably powerpoint presentations, and the odd word and excel documents as i work on them.
not in the US, so don't know what sams club is - take it its a computer store. been looking at UK based online stores, 1gb sd card would cost around £60-£80, compared to £40-70 for a 512mb and £30-40 for a 256mb.
tungsten xx looks nice - but don't think i'll need wifi, am a newbie to pda's so want to have some time to figure out how it works before term starts!
sooo, going on what you say, 256mb would be a sensible choice?

zazoo, don't buy stuff in europe. Go on ebay first. 30 GBP is around 55 US, don't spend that much for a 256 mb card! ebay uk is quite good. Oh, and Tungsten T5 is around 120 GBP on ebay.co.uk (ok ok so it's refurbished) - really good price.
all techy related stuff seem to be cheaper outside europe!! so unfair! just get v. jealous when i happen to check out a US site first.
anyways, have never used ebay ( 😱 ), so am hesistant about using it (the technophobe within me is clinging on...). did have a look on the site - indeed, the prices are tempting...
would it be sensible to get the pda from an internet store, then all the accessories (including sd card) from ebay?
thanks!
