Actually, a Blackberry is a PDA, it's just more advanced and with more options. Kind of like a cell phone with caller id, text messaging, camera, etc. The Blackberry can be used as a cellular phone, a PDA (it has a keypad so it is much easier to use than a regular PDA), email, you can use the web, calendar, there are so many things. You can also add programs into it. They are a little spendy though. It's funny, I was reading CNN news one day and there was an article about a hotel for Blackberry addiction. When you would check in, the owner would take your Blackberry. The purpose of this was because so many people get addicted to the Blackberry that they spend their whole day using it. The owner of the hotel had this problem and that's where the idea came from. So, while people were staying at this hotel, they had to find something else to do than use the Blackberry. They could have it back at any time. Several people have liked this idea and realized they were so preoccupied with this device they were getting very little of anything else done.
