NEED PORTABLE ELECTRONIC ITEM TO STORE INFORMATION

March 24, 2007 22:42

My wife is a big movie buff and collects DVDs.She has close to 1400 at this time.A few times she has bought copies she already has.Is there some type of electronic device that is small and that she can store the names of DVDs that she already has in it ? A laptop would be too big to haul around.

Yep, and you can go as simple or elaborate (ie., cheap or expensive) as you want.[:)]

And older palm model will likely be perfect... if you want new and other abilities (surf web, email, etc.) then I'll admit that I love my Nokia 770. Its been updated (Nokia 800 now) but the new version is even better.

And while it is Nokia, it is not a phone...

Note book and pencil are ok for the memory except I keep forgetting to look at it.

I've got a tiny sheet of paper, folded in my wallet.
In tiny print, on that tiny sheet, are tiny numbers.
Tiny numbers recording make, caliber, description, and serial number ...

not sure about the handheld that is best, but the best application to store and manage those movies is dvdprofiler! Totally free, online, fully manages your entire DVD collection. You can organize, print listings (by actor/genre/chickflick/etc), put down who borrows the movie, etc.

I guess I did not make it clear in my first post.She needs somehing to take shopping with her to make sure she doesn't buy something she already has.

1911 beat me to it...was gonna say use excell and print the list. You can alphabetize it by title so it's easy to look them up.

I know what you are talking about. This morning I lost something and was looking for it. Then I forgot what I was looking for. I've been young and I've been old. Young is better. [:D]

I do that kind of stuff now and I'm only 30...must have had some bad whiskey in college or something. I'm guessing it's only going to get worse.
