It isn't really a *need* as much as it is a **WANT**. I bought a Sharp
Zaurus 5500 off of the Home Shopping Network earlier this year when they
had that insane sale for $180ish. I have been quite pleased with it so
far. If you dim the backlight a little, say one or two notches, you can
get more life out of the battery. It is true, the batteries don't last
too terribly long. I ran mine down in about 2-3 days of use.
Overall though, I like it, but that is just my opinion and my .02.
