carebear15 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 my cell phone contract is ending soon and thinking of getting a palm treo or blackberry... any thoughts on which phone is best to load medical software? i know a lot more things are coming out for blackberry (and i like it better than the treo, but a lot more programs are available for the palm). thanks!

Maxime Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I have a htc touch, and there are plenty of medical programs compatible with the windows mobile 6 environment. Don't know about blackberry, but bell has a really nice plan, 7$/month illimited internet access from your pda (works with the touch). I think the same programs are available also available for the palm platform. You'll definitely be more limited with blackberry, but I heard skyscape now makes programs compatible with this platform.

rocky222 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I wonder if medical software can be installed on the Iphone when and if it ever comes to Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Jackson Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 I know that http://www.qxmd.com offers a couple nice programs for the Blackberry. It says they are coming out with more soon too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I wonder if medical software can be installed on the Iphone when and if it ever comes to Canada. The Iphone is on its way to Canada. That part has been confirmed, the when is still a little up in the air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitum Medicinus Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I went with the Samsung Jack (in the USA it is known as the Samsung Blackjack II). My line of reasoning here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdev Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 You might also consider some of those new "mini" laptops, they are super portable and you can run prettymuch anything you need on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
