But this has been tried and failed for three reasons:- 1)PDA screens are not designed to be viewed under direct sunlight; 2) PDAs (most) are not water- (playing in rain)and sport-proof (slipping it from your sweaty palms); 3) Fumbling with numerous buttons and navigation keys or stylus on PDA is the LAST thing you want to do before a shot, and 4) PDAs (iPhones etc) are much more vulnerable to theft than golf specific handheld units (also losing your PDA along with the zillion of valuable info on it spells migrain).
