Life for college students is complicated. Between classes, studying, partying and working, it sometime seems like it is hard to keep track of life. This is especially true of the the important things that need to be remembered and completed. The great news is that technology has reached a point where it can make it easier for students to keep up with their responsibilities. So before you head off to college or you send off a student to college, consider filling the old school backpack with these 5 'techie' must have items. With these items college students are sure to keep up with their studies in a big way.

1. PDA System: Palm Treo 650 PDA Phone
There is no need to have a cell phone and a PDA to jumble up your bag when you can have the best of 2 or 3 worlds all in one little powerful product. The Palm Treo 650 takes the world of cell phones, email, an electronic organizer, text and instant messaging, and web access, and makes it accessible in the palm of our hand. It even has Bluetooth capability! Palm took it a notch above the rest and included an MP3 player and a digital camera, which also creates videos. This is a must have for college students to keep up with their schedules and access the information they need for studying and learning, wherever they are!

2. Laptop Computer: Dell Inspiron 6000 Notebook
Laptop computers enable students to take notes in class, study, write papers, and conduct research, whether they are at the library, in their dorm room, or in the waiting area of the airport going home for the holidays. This particular computer is great for college students because it is sold at a very affordable price, has a screen large enough to seem like it is a desktop computer, and is lightweight and easy to carry. It also features a wireless card so that students can connect to the Internet whether they are on-campus or off.

3. Voice Recorder: Sony M-570V Micro Cassette
A voice recorder is the perfect little item for students that need to take "notes" in class. Lectures can provide a lot of information that students will need to access later when they are studying or preparing for an exam. A voice recorder helps college students to make sure that don't miss a thing in class!

4. Memory Stick(s)
Memory sticks are probably one of the greatest little inventions since sliced bread, especially for college students. These file storage sticks allow students to work on their papers, projects, and homework in the school's computer lab and with the switch of a stick access the same information on their desktop computer in their dorm room. It holds more information than a standard disk or CD. The memory and storage stick is a college students best friend, no questions asked, hands down.
