I still regard the Cambridge Z88 as the quitessential writing-on-the-move tool. No boot lag, no HDD, it is silent, I got several weeks of power from 4 x (?) AA batteries, backup I can pop in an envelope and mail home via EPROM and a display that gave you one and a half paragraphs per screen which REALLY taught me about brevity and precision (not that I show it on my Blog) . It's also rugged and while larger than a Palm etc it is still smaller than my 12-inch iBook.
My Treo 600 (with all the useless shite switched off) gives me three to four days as a Phone and PDA I've never measured what it would be like as a PDA-alone but I suspect a lot more...
