Plugging in-looking for recommendations

For any of you healthcare folks out there that may read this, I have a request:

What electronic device can you not function without at work?

PDA
Blackberry
iPhone

What software/apps do you recommend? The only one I am familiar with is ePocrates. Any others? Is there anything along the lines of an electronic scutbook?

Thanks for your time!

Job Hunting


Wow...I haven't had to actually find a job for 25+ years. Putting together a CV, phone interviews, in-person interviews, salary and benefit negotiations, cost of living and quality of life decisions, new state licensure. It's
been interesting.
I purposely decided not to hang up my own shingle and have been looking at group practices or staff positions. They have run the gamut from Medicaid mills on up.
I have had 2 serious offers so far. One is from a private group of physicians who own their own hospital and have a small in-house dental practice. I am strongly considering that one. The other position at a state hospital just had it's funding pulled as a cost saving measure. So much for that.
Off to a third interview on Monday. We'll see how that goes.

The bait shop is still a consideration. Maybe I'll add a marina... ;-)
