To be prerfectly honest, I don't actually want to buy either - the only reason I bought a GameBoy Pocket way back when was so that I could play Pokemon (and because it was very cheap). It currently resides in a drawer gathering dust (mainly because I can't be bothered to buy a new battery pack for it, if they even still make them). My PS2 and my PC between them fulfill all my gaming needs, so I don't feel the need to spend money on any other systems that I probably won't use after the first twelve months.

I will have to buy a mobile phone at some point though, a fact that I am supremely annoyed about.
I agree. For mobility I have a mobile and a Palm. Anything else would be unnecessary, IMO...

A Palm?

Get away from me, Devil-creature!

Palms aren't so bad...

*washes mouth out with soap*

Anyway, I don't use them myself - got me an Ipaq HX4700 instead.

Aside from that it runs on Windows, crashes, and overheats like crazy, you mean? It's a PC, and it suffers the same problems.

At least with a Palm you have none of the problems and pretty much identical advantages by now

I've never had a single damn problem with my Pocket PC.

Of course, some people have this need to overgeneralize based on crap statistics. As in, those who complain the loudest are not necessarily typical of the population as a whole.

I'm agreeing with ijdgaf, there - the only serious problem my pocketpc has ever had turned out to be a duff (3rd party) GPS receiver driver.
