PocketPC vs Palm OS

Any one have a pocket pc? I'm thinking about buying one in the next few days. I've narrowed it down to the:

Toshiba E755 PocketPC 2003

But it's kinda expensive. Using gift money to buy it. lol. Well I think I like the idea of a pocketpc but not sure. I used to have a Palm but it seams you can do so much more with Pocketpc.

i had an HP pocket pc (but sold it to buy my laptop) and i've used many of my friends various palmpilots. the windows ce operating system os so much better than palm's OS. mainly because it has all the windows features. it has word, excel, windows media player, solitare, and a lot more. im not sure if the palm also can do this but i bought a wireless broadband card so i can go online in my house and other places that have 802.11b which was awesome since i downloaded AIM and it comes with a great web browser. all in all, i highly suggest getting a pocket pc over a palm.(but pay a few hundred dollars more and get a laptop.)

I don't get pocket pc's. What's so great about them aside from it being more handheld? Also how easy are they to use? I havn't really looked into them.

My pad of paper and pencil get decent resolution but i cant get my email to work and i never quite figured out where the batteries go. I figured the thing must be solar powered since it only works when theres light.
