If you are still taking requests, I would love to try to revive either the Clie or the Palm T3. I do software support for Laridian and the Tungsten C that I use is barely functioning right now.

I have been trying to purge as much as possible lately, but the problem is sometimes a emulator/simulator just doesn’t get the job done when trying to replicate a customer’s issue. At least Palm did us a favor by EOL’ing the Palm OS.

I’d be interested in one of the iPaqs and a Palm. Thanks.

I have a similar although much smaller collection of old portable tech. Might be interesting to capture good photos of each unit (at least the PDAs) before disposing. I’ve been thinking about doing that with my castoffs.

On a related note, I realized the other day that I have data — mostly old addresses — that was originally thumbed in on a Psion Siena, back in the 90′s, and faithfully transferred forward to each successive PDA I’ve had since then. The machines come and go, but the bytes live on. (Still got the Psion, by the way.)

Thanks everyone. I’m going to sort out the requests this morning and get back to everyone who requested stuff.

I see the Motorola MPX200 which I believe was the first smart phone offered in the US. I remember picking mine up at Best Buy and I still have it in my technology junk pile!

I’ll gladly take any unclaimed folding keyboards – thank you! I’ll make sure my address/phone are up to date in my customer account…

Long-time Ilium software user from the PDA days here, kindly requests the IPAQ 2210, charger, and cradle please.

I have a orphaned huge HPC Notes database I can’t open using the Windows version because it’s passworded. The Windows version can’t access a passworded file created with an older HPC Notes version. Phatware said the only way to access it is via the PPC. But my IPAQ broke.

Thank you!!

If any of the folding keyboards are bluetooth it would work great with my UMPC.

It’s also a hazard of being a gadget freak. My wife has pointed out that every time I buy a new PDA I try to partly justify it by saying I’ll sell my current device to cover some of the cost. Number of PDAs I’ve ever sold? Zero.
