Do you make money on a desktop computer?
Then just do that on a handheld...
Re-think your question before you ask.

I wouldn't recommend using a handheld as the only way to input orders, but it is good to have as a backup order entry device when out and about. I have an old treo 600 which works pretty well, but I'm looking at getting the new 700p or blackberry 8700.
I never place orders on my treo but use it to look up quotes all the time.

I used the Blackberry 8700c but found the technology for trading(device and broker software) a bit clunky for anything other than getting quotes.
I was hoping to have it as a backup to my desktop connection as well as a means to be able to trade when I couldn't be at my desk, but I think we're a few years away from that yet.
Quotrek works fine on it, but I sometimes had trouble connecting to the feed. Since the Blackberry data service plus Quotrek amounts to $65 a month, I didn't feel it was worth it.

$59 a month unlimited.
There are a lot of ultra-poratble laptop that would have a PC Card slot.
