I have been using a Compaq Aero 1520 on a daily basis for almost 2 years now. I use it mainly to keep track of my patients (Patient Tracker), reference (7 complete books plus my own notes [including the Merck Manual, the Washington Manual, a vademecum and Harrison´s Companion Book) and still I haven´t reach half the capacity of my 32 Megs Compact Flash, Archimedes (excelent medical calculator) and day to day agenda, contacts, to do list and so. I also have some internet channel that delivers new abstracts from medical magazines. I really love this machine, but I am moving to the new Jornada 720 (keyboard, faster performance[205 MHz!! procesor!!!], more storage memory [32 Megs], Pocket Office including Powerpoint and Access!! and built in 56K modem) in March.And still it fits my white coat pocket.

And a little question: żDoes any one know a Pregnancy Calculator (like PregCalc) for Windows CE??? Thanks! Happy Holidays!

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
