The handheld computer, or PDA (personal digital assistant), represents a new phase in educational technology that allows for a truly portable computational device in an affordable package. From its humble beginnings as an electronic data organizer, the PDA has evolved into a sophisticated computational and informational tool through the development of various third party application programs. Among the most popular applications is AvantGo, which allows for the deployment of web applications on handheld computers. By accessing the AvantGo server during a synchronization operation with an Internet-connected PC, entire web sites can be downloaded to the handheld, then viewed later through use of the free AvantGo client that is resident on the handheld.
