I've seen these before and I like it a lot! It is similar to the Blackberry in the US I think.

Now we expect you ton keep in touch whenever you are :)

Yes, I can be online easily but I need to find a WIFI connection. It is not THAT common but things are improving now.
As for the PDA, it is still small and uneasy compared to a laptop of course... What's cool is to listen to online radio through the PDA :)
Sophia, I hope you can get a high speed connection for Christmas time!

I hope too :D

What is the WIFI connection,is it including in the ASDL pack?When connecting on the web you can see photos on your PDA as fast as a pc?

You can have a WIFI with your ADSL connection but not always. It is in fact just a wireless connection.
In short, you get a ADSL modem that has the WIFI connection (it has a little antenna on it). You connect the ADSL modem to your phone line like you do now with your current modem. The difference is your computer does not need to be connected to your phone line: you get a WIFI card (can also be plugged into your computer using the USB port) instead. It is nice because your modem is in the living room per example, and your computer can be in your bedroom without the phone cable.
Many PDAs start to have WIFI included, so yes, you can see pictures at full speed. It depends on how fast is your ADSL connection and on how far you are from your ADSL modem (walls make the connection slower).
If your ADSL modem does not have WIFI included, don't worry. You just need to get a WIFI router and to plug it to your modem.
Are you going to pay me a Squeezyjet round trip flight so I install it for you? :D

There are several places where you can get the WIFI for free (some restaurants, pubs, universities...) so you aren't fully dreaming :D

That's probably the cost of a one way ticket. Any spare room in your house? LOL

Get the ADSL for the summer. I know it can get pretty cold in Athens during the winter ;)
