- Zen is often associated with a minimalist aesthetic which the hPDA reflects. Keithlard 17:48, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

- What does "often associated with" mean? Who associates Zen Buddhism with an aesthetic comparable to a stack of index cards. I would say that the urge to organize one's life is somewhat antithetical to Zen Philosophy. Perhaps there is a body of literature I'm missing on the aesthetics of Zen Buddhism, that I couldn't find on the Zen page (or in my other Zen readings over time). If there is, you can put it back in, but I'm going to take out this phrase because I think it is just one person's opinion (i.e. original research).

- Uh, surely this sort of triviality doesn't warrant a wikipedia page. --Paultopia 04:49, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- First, the Wikipedia is not paper, and "Hard disks are cheap." (Jimbo)
- Second, a growing number of people are using these, and they represent a strong dissatisfaction with current PDAs. I've used two Palm handhelds, and my current one cost a couple hundred dollars, but it's so frustrating that I've been thinking about going back to paper for a while. Now, having heard about the hPDA and DIY Planner communities, I've just started making mine, as there's lots of advice available for doing so.
- My point is, it's notable that people (including IT professionals) are switching to such a low-tech solution after spending hundreds on electronics to perform the same tasks. Jobarts-Talk 08:21, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

I suggest this page be moved to Uncyclopedia. --SU182 07:59, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

- Well, I still get several hundred hits to my hipster template page a week. Many of them come from this wikipedia article, so there folks are coming here looking for this information.

The article provides notability. The article may be a candidate for deletion, but I don't believe notability is the correct reason. Azazyel (talk) 08:06, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
