Whatcha Doin' With That Ol' PDA
Something that I have gotten into the habit of doing (and when funds permit its even more of a doing) is purchasing old PDAs that people are selling on places such as Craigslist and then loading them with Bible software and giving them a new home. Many times, a person has a PDA that they no longer use, and so they are willing to sell it (and in some cases give it away for nothing) when I make mention of my intentions with it. Tis a good thing for that ol' PDA to find one and give it a good home.
As something that is a part of Mobile Ministry Magazine's mission, we also want to for you to feel empowered to give your old PDA a new home. So if you have an old PDA, PDA accessories, and do not know what to do with it; take it over to your local church, missions group, or youth center; ask them if they would have a need for it, and then be a blessing to someone else.
And if you are not able to find someone to send your PDA or PDA accessory to, shoot us an email here at MMM. We will gladly take that PDA and find it a new home with either a missions group or ministry that has a need of using mobile computing.
[Before I forget: the reason we would send PDAs with software to missionaries is because in many places, to carry a book-bible is not possible. Having it on your PDA is a means to carry the Word with you while keeping your interactions with another culture intact - dictionaries, phrase guides, maps, etc.]
Please know, MMM is not a reseller. We will not sell a PDA or any computing tool to anyone. The purpose of this ministry is to make sure that those who have a need for this technology in their respective fields, have the technology and training to make the most use of it.
So if that ol' PDA is just laying around, dust that thing off and let that seed become fruit for someone else.
