I would greatly appreciate it if anyone who owns a PDA (any model) and a cellular phone (any model), or some manner of combination of the two (i.e. handspring treo) would answer just a couple of questions for me.

All you have to do is hit "reply" and fill in your the answers.

I am primarily interested in people who own both a cell phone and a pda, but I will gladly accept input from those who own one or the other.

This is for a project in my Studio II class for Graphic Design where I intend to remarket the Handspring Treo towards the youth market.

Please answer the following:

Your age:
Your sex (m/f/t):
Model of PDA owned:
Model of Cell Phone:
Model of Hybrid you own:

If you have owned multiple PDA's, CellPhones, or hybrids, then please include all previous models owned as well.

On a scale of 1 to 5, 1 being least important and 5 being most important, please rate the importance of the following factors in deciding which model of PDA or cell phone you purchased.

PDA:
Style
Features
Brand
Price

CellPhone:

Thanks to all those who participate!
