PDA Virus software will help eliminate problems before they happen.
A PDA virus is just as dangerous as a regular virus. It can eat its way through a handheld PC and destroys files, software, and other important data. In most cases, by the time the worm or bug is finished, there is nothing left to do but either purchase a new hard drive or buy a new computer. Either answer is an expensive proposition for someone living on a budget. And, since it is easy to prevent such an attack by scanning your computer regularly with anti-virus software from free or pay-to-use providers, it is often an unnecessary cost.
Imagine your PDA being swallowed by a computer worm it caught while on the World Wide Web. Most PDA users don't think they need to buy software specific to their Palm Pilot, but it may prove to be a very wise investment. After all, you wouldn't surf the Internet without anti-virus software, why would you surf the Internet on your Pocket PC without it? It makes sense to cover all the bases and make sure are protected. If you get a virus on your Pocket PC and it uploads to your desktop computer, it can infect it, too. If this happens, it might be too late to salvage your system even if you have anti-virus software.
Investing in PDA software to protect it from viruses is your only solution to keeping it safe, clean, and reliable. You may have invested hundreds of dollars in buying a palm pilot, why not invest in something that will keep it working for a lifetime as well?
