I'm looking for a PDA with an integrated keyboard and WiFi. My searching has only given me a few options, and I really thought the keyboard was more popular. I'd like to keep the price in the sub-$500 range, so that kind of kills everything in the mini-pc category. I don't care if it's Palm or PocketPC really (since I'll need Missing sync either way).

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

I recently sold my Tungsten C, which has both Wi-Fi and a keyboard. When I bought the PDA, the speed of the processor amazed me, and the Wi-Fi was nifty to play with.

I soon discovered, though, that everywhere I took the T/C I also had my PowerBook. The Tungsten C was also too bulky for me to carry around with just a cell phone. Finally, while Wi-Fi browsing is great, you need to be in range of a convenient access point. Using a PowerBook with a GSM modem has been far more practical.

If I remember correctly HP sells a keyboard attachment that you can plug into most models of the iPaq. It's not the separate fold out kind, but the mini key kind like shown in the picture above. I think they're $40 or so.
