Gadget Advice Requested - note taking device with a keyboard

[andrewducker]

star_tourmaline wants a note taking device, with a keyboard, which isn't a phone. Something small enough to carry about, as if it was a phone, but without the expense of a phone (and the distractions that come with one).

Any suggestions?

Edit: When I say "keyboard" I do not mean "a simulation thereof".

Does it need to be a modern device?

You could find an old Psion palmtop PDA or similar on ebay or second hand somewhere? Unless these are now expensive collectors items.

There are Palm pocket pc/PDAs on Amazon too.
