Time Management Devices
There are many portable electronic solutions for time management, goal setting and organizing.
Many devices combine these functions with communication (portable telephones) and entertainment (mp3 players).

 PDA

Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are handheld computers, but have become much more versatile over the years.

PDAs are also known as pocket computers or palmtop computers.
PDAs have many uses: calculation, use as a clock and calendar, accessing the Internet, sending and receiving E-mails, video recording, typewriting and word processing, use as an address book, making and writing on spreadsheets, scanning bar codes, use as a radio or stereo, playing computer games, recording survey responses, and Global Positioning System (GPS).
Newer PDAs also have both color screens and audio capabilities, enabling them to be used as mobile phones (smartphones), web browsers, or portable media players. Many PDAs can access the Internet, intranets or extranets via Wi-Fi, or Wireless Wide-Area Networks (WWANs).
Many PDAs employ touch screen technology.

A good alternative to Personal digital assistants is the traditional paper planning system. This system works for many people.

A paper-based Planning System allows you to manage tasks, appointments, contacts, and notes every day and is easy to integrate with any electronic components you use. Every good Planning System will allow you to personalize it to fit your lifestyle, carry your information with you always, and eliminate redundancy for maximum effectiveness.
There are some great paper planning systems still on the market today.
