CNET's business buying guide
CNET editors' picks for handhelds
By Christopher Null and Bonnie Cha (updated September 10, 2004)

Today's handhelds are more than just electronic organizers. You can use them to connect to the Web, check your corporate e-mail, work on office files, and, in the case of smart phones, double as your cell phone. In fact, a well-equipped PDA can stand in for a laptop when you're in a pinch. However, with so many options--Pocket PC or Palm, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi--the search for the perfect office companion can be confusing. To guide you in this process, here are some things to keep in mind while you're shopping around.
