PDA or personal digital assistance has been a boon for the busy professionals and the tech savvy users. The device is a hand held computer that is enabled with some advance features to effectively manage contacts, tasks and appointments.

PDAs are also wireless at times. A wireless PDA can offer features like e-mail, Web browsing and cellular phone service. For synchronisation of data between PDAs and desktop computer, cabled connection is needed, or it may happen through a wireless connection.
PDAs first came into existence in 1993, with Apple’s MessagePad. It was commonly known as “Newton”. However, Palm Pilots improved upon the technology and made the device popular after couple of years. And with Blackberry’s synchronized e-mail in 1999, the PDA escalated to becoming a mobile office.
PDAs are extremely useful for storing heavy information. PDAs can be operated in two ways - PDAs may use a pen or keys. In the pen-based PDAs, the users operate the device using a stylus. Stylus is a thin pencil shaped device, the users select the menu on the screen by gently tapping with the stylus. This also means that most PDAs have a feature called handwriting recognition. Lightweight, full-size, folding keyboards can be connected and used when a desk surface is available.

Liz Lange is practically a maternity expert. Not only does she have two children of her own, but she spends every working day of her life counseling mothers-to-be on everything from diaper bags to diapers. Please see below for some tips on how expecting mothers can look their best even when they feel their worst.
1. Dress
“The best thing to do on the days you feel enormous is to actually show off your pregnancy.”

Liz strongly urges all expecting mothers to find maternity clothing that fits them properly. Just as in your non-pregnancy life, clothing that is too tight or too loose can make you look and feel larger. Another quick fix for when you are feeling down about your new size? Try what Liz calls “dipping,” which is dressing from top to bottom in one color such as black or dark brown.
2. Beauty
“Nothing wakes up your look like mascara, even if you can’t stand makeup, invest in a good black mascara to instantly revive your appearance. It’s like a cup of coffee for tired eyes.”
Liz also suggests treating yourself to a facial every few weeks to really let the glow of maternity shine through. Even if you have never had a facial before in your life, starting during pregnancy is a wise time as many women undergo dramatic complexion changes and need to be re-educated on how to care for their new skin.
3. Exercise
“You’re first impulse might be to veg out in front of the TV when you feel crummy, but you should do just the opposite. Don’t worry, you don’t need to run a marathon, but just a simple walk around the block will get your heart pumping and jumpstart your spirits.”
