Using PDAs as desktop computers

Brighthand reports that a PDA cradle is being manufactured by Synosphere that will let you connect a PDA to fullsized keyboard, mouse and VGA monitor. Pictures of the "Blue Dock" are available from the Synosphere site. Very nice indeed. As PDA's get smaller and more powerful, I find it easier to get away with using one in place of a notebook computer for very basic web, email, MS Office work and occassional telneting. I don't forsee a PDA really replacing my desktop any time soon, but for now it's functioning a bit like all those lightweight Internet machines that failed to survive, but with a tiny bit more functionality.
