XDA II
An XDA II is a smart phone which means that it is an electronic handheld device that is a combination of a mobile phone, personal digital assistant (PDA) or other information appliance. It contains games, internet access, address book, phone, note pad and much more. Khalik Rahman uses his XDA to contact his company and for his company to contact him. The XDA II has Khalik Rahman's own company software stored in it and his pick up's are sent to it. Compared to computers and laptops a XDA II is really small and is like a computer and mobile phone put together. Khalik Rahman is a really busy man and his XDA II helps him keep track of his pick ups and appointments. If he sometimes cannot contact his work place then he can fax them and get a reply back. The great thing about an XDA II is that if he has no time to read his emails at home then he can download them to his XDA II and read them offline. Also if he can't make it to one of his pick ups then he can ask one of his colleagues to swap pick ups with him. Sometimes if Khalik Rahman is lost then he can activate the navigator in his XDA II and find and alternate route. Another advantage is that it has a large screen and images can be seen clearly.
