we need a pda phone!

in our class we have to prove that we need a certain type of technology and say why we would use it, explain how it would help us learn, then record it onto a camera and send it to the council and if they think we really do need it to help us to learn then they will buy it- for us! its pretty radical!
i think our class could and should have lots more technology then we already do to help us learn more effectively, so i am going to prove why...
pda phones:
pda phones are a small, portable, light and convinient piece of technology. they have the same features as computers, but lots more and it is just like a computer, laptop, video camera, telephone/cellphone,digital camera all in one. the reason i think that is because they can access the same programms as computers, are just as portable as laptops but dont have to fold, can record anything we want like video cameras, take photos just like digital cameras,talk to friends on the phone AND we can see the time. it also has the basic features like stopwatch ,calendars alarm clocks and calculators. it is a brilliant piece of technology.
i think it would help us learn more effectively because we could research much more quickly than having to access the computer, we could take it with us on a field trip to record information we couldnt remember. we could type in writing or notes into the microsoft words and save it instead of writing on paper. we could also have a audioconference on the phone and we could discover many more things. that is why i think we need a pda phone.

Very persuasive kitty milo! My dad has a pda phone (for work) and I know that unless you pay extra or download something (or something), the internet's really slow - or you can't get it at all! So it probably wouldn't be more effective than a computer for researching.
