Spent the whole last Sunday roaming around JB with my brother looking for a PDA that has VGA output. First we went to the Landmark IT Mall. Prior to arriving, I imagined the place was like the Low Yatt Plaza in KL. Thus, I went there pinning high hopes that my search for the PDA will be answered there. Alas, the place was i guessed, just around 60% resembling the Low Yatt. Computer shops occupied the whole building but the atmosphere was not as merry as the one in KL. And to my dismay, not a single shop there was selling PDA. Asus eee was sold at some of the outlets but only the black unit. “If you want the pearl white, I have to order from Taiwan”, one shop assistant told me. “How long will it take?”, I asked. “About a week”. Aghh, can’t wait that long. At that time, I was not sure whether to buy a PDA or a UMPC like Asus eee. PDA was my first choice but the Asus would be a good buy too as it has almost all the features a PDA could offer. Besides, it comes with a keyboard which makes typing a breeze. But Asus in black looks like a cheap toy laptop. So we went off to the Jusco at Tebrau City. My brother said there was a PDA outlet there. When we arrived, there was just a handful of Dopod PDA-phone available. I guess they were running out of stocks. ..cont.
