PDA Market Falls On May 10, 2005
That's the date of the release of yet another market study on pdas. We've heard that the market is down. Then up. Now May 10th brings news that it's down again according to a study released by IDC. Fifth consecutive quarter of falling sales of pdas. Doom and gloom once again? Somehow I've lost interest.

No doubt the pda market faces challenges like saturation and competition from smart phones. But studies on the pda market are starting to sound like the bickering being carried on about whether or not cell phone radiation emmissions are bad for you.

All right, the pda market is down today. Just be patient. I'm sure some research firm will "surprise" us again by how resilient the market is with a new study about the remarkable growth in pdas!
