How about it, you Touch users out there? If I get the 2nd Gen Touch, will it work as a PDA? I need calendar (with the option of an alarm to remind me of an appointment), contacts, and some sort of note app (to keep a shopping list on and that kind of thing). It would be nice if calendar and contacts could talk to each other (If "3:00pm Meet Cyndi" in the calendar could easily call up Cyndi's phone number in contacts, for instance), but that isn't a dealbreaker.
I'd be interested in any advice you have. Thanks!

go to the aps store for the iTouch, iPhone and browse through that for calendaring and shopping utiltites. I have a really cool grocery list program and lots of other helpful utilities on my iTouch. I also setup Calibre so that I can access my Calibre library on my iTouch (epub format). Here is the ap store link
