I would stay away from old and look at maybe a Zire. You can get one, brand
new, for around 100.00. The thing about an old Palm is that it just doesn't
have the memory. When you get a pocket query of 250 caches, you are looking
at about 750K for the file. Old Palms tend to run out of memory pretty
quick. A Zire 31 can be found on Ebay or Amazon for around 99.00 or so. They
have 14 meg of usable memory and they are color. Then you can load all the
supporting apps such as Plucker, Geocalc, etc...
Of course this is just my opinion. Some others will offer other solutions.

I am just now looking into getting a PDA for paperless caching, but don't
want to spend alot of dinero for one. I am clueless to all the hi-tech
talking, too, when it comes to electronics. Is there anyone who is low tech
like me that has gone paperless? I have read numerous times that an old
PDA, maybe from ebay, like a Palm III would be just fine. Anyone have
advice? I am just learning to work with GSAK too so I would appreciate the
help. Thanks! :D Sue
