I liked Clié Organizer.
Nowadays I just prefer syncing to Evolution, so gpe is mostly enough for me.

What is your choice?

I'm rather happy with GPE, really. Actively developed, open source project, mature, synchronizing it with my Linux desktop is reasonably easy with opensync (though not as easy as with PalmOS for some reason)... only real problem is that the alarm kills kittens.

For me the best would be the Palm OS5 PIM application. I don't have much experience with anything else however. Right now I am using GPE suite on the N810.

Best ever, for me, was / is a Newton 2100 and / or the eMate 300. Fantastic variety of input options, truly powerful PIM software, large screen, and a very good set of other apps to boot. And for me (and for most other long-term users) the printed handwriting recognizer worked fabulously well out of the box, and the cursive (if trained) really well too.
Cheers,
Jon

KOrganizer wasn't meant for a PDA and works very poorly on it. I have a Zaurus SL-C760 and KOrg was extremely cumbersome to use.

The best thing about the mobile KDE PIM suite was that it was very configurable visually - and you could increase/decrease the amount of information you wanted to see on the screen real-estate and also size and hide windows and frames etc.

To qualify for me a PIM must have contacts,calendar,todo/task,notes
Of course I have not used many others so I am curious to hear other opinions
Symbian, Iphone, RIM, ....?
