It was partly the keyboard and partly the connectivity of the Sigmarion I. ActiveSync sucked so bad that I used a spare CF card to do most of the transferring. The Internet experience I had with it was also disappointing. Most programs wouldn't run on the Windows CE version it had so I had to use the bundled Pocket IE and other apps. They weren't very good and I kept longing for something like the browser that is bundled with the Sig III. So in short, no I'm not really using it now but I am always tempted to pull it out and try again to get it to integrate with my workflow. I'm sure you won't have as many problems as I had with the Sig I. But given the choice I would go for <a href="http://engadget.com/2006/01/13/sharp-w-zero3-mini-review/" rel="nofollow">the Sharp W Zero3</a> now. Hi,

I picked up a used SigIII in Akihabara last weekend and find that it's perfect for my mobile note taking. I listen to a lot of podcasts and like to take notes so that I can blog about them (or just remember them) later. I was wondering what your opinion of the Sig turned out to be after you used it for a while, and if you're still using it. Hi Ian,
