Since I was little, I had always wanted one of these organizers. I had always kept a diary and saw it as the best way to keep secrets from prying eyes. It was also small, robust and cheap. Even today, it had a lot of functions that I still quite like.
It had a password protection, a docking station to sync to the PC, fast access to apps and a great search facility. It doesn't have fancy graphics or a graphical user interface, but the text only screen makes it simple. If I needed to look up contacts, notes and schedules all the information would be presented in an instant. No waiting, no double clicking or multiple menus, and no hour glass. When I am super busy and under pressure, getting instant access is so important and I could forgive it's dated looks.
Unfortunately, I couldn't use one today. The data would be gone once the battery dies and I am not fond of the CR2032 batteries. Editing notes on it would be impractical and the memory is too small to hold anything useful. In fact, most of it's functions can be done on a current mobile phone.
