I'm running Mac OS X, which has a built-in firewall, and I don't have to run any anti-spyware or antivirus software. My suggestion would be to get Mac OS X. I'm not being flip. I've had a few clients...
I recently sold my Palm Tungsten T and upgraded to a Tungsten E. I love the E, but one thing I miss is the built-in voice recorder that the T had. I'd like to find an ultra-thin voice recorder that I...
It depends. Personally, I couldn't keep my financial life in order without some kind of finance software. Well, I could, but it would be a lot more work. I've been using Quicken since 1989, but after...
I've been happy with Ultrakey:

It's inexpensive and cross-platform.

Because 90% of the time I'm working at my desk with my computer. It's easier and faster to view, find, and enter data on my computer than it is on my palm. I need the information in my Palm for the...
I enter data on my computer mostly, but I bought Fitaly Stamp for entering data on my Palm. I nearly doubled my input speed using the Fitaly Keyboard over using Grafitti. There's a version of Fitaly...
I'll add a couple that I haven't seen mentioned yet:
The Time Trap by Alec Mackenzie

Using DA's "altitude" metaphor, this book deals...
Why not do it this way. This is how I squeeze in reading work related books, mostly technical, into my otherwise packed day. e.g. I currently have a "Read Adobe Photoshop CS for Photographers 15 min"...
Some prefatory remarks: I've been using my Palm with GTD for a couple of years now. I've wasted a lot of time playing with software to try to make my system "better," and with a couple of exceptions,...
I recommend a throught reading of The Now Habit:

You may also find this article, "The Tyranny of Email", helpful:

I still send people copies of "Rules of Email", written by Guy Kawasaki for the now defunct MacWeek. I've enclosed it below. The article is freely distributable with permission from the author.

I assign a 4 digit project number to each of my projects. Any entry I make in the Palm--to do, memo, etc.--that's related to that project includes that project number. E.g. I have a project "Upgrade...
Those kind of programs exist now. I've been using one for years:

Mailsmith uses a database to store mail rather than keeping in text file...
I've been doing GTD since the book first came out, and I've gone through a number of different ways of handling my projects list. I've been using my current system for close to a year now, and I...
If you're not opposed to going with a used Palm, look on eBay. A couple of months ago I purchased a used Tungsten T in like new condition for $150. That's cheaper than all the current Palms except...
The Time Trap by Alec Mackenzie
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/081447926X/
I read it before I read GTD, but I've found that it complements GTD very nicely. The ideas, tips, and...
Following the philosophy of keeping everything as simple as possible, I use only Palm Desktop for Mac. It's free, and it does everything I need. GTD is, at it's core, managing lists, and Palm Desktop...
Unbreakable screens? Not that I'm aware of. As to which Palm I would recommend for GTD: the recently resurrected Palm m500. I got one of these last christmas, and it is the best Palm I've ever owned....
