Jirka recently wrote about obtaining a Rex 6000[1], and even
more recently about a problem with said PDA[2]. I'm jealous
of jirka's ebay finds, they're always awesome!

I had a Rex6000 years ago, and I vaguely recall the memory
issue jirka is describing. Honestly, I couldn't remember how
to fix it, so I turned to google and archive.org[3]. Here's
something about it:

"The REX 6000 does not clean up its memory when you make
changes. This causes the memory to fill up, even when simply
modifying data. Make sure to defragment the memory
periodically, either automatically during Web Sync, or
manually through REX Tools."

Hopefully that helps...

Once you get it working properly, make sure to try out the
game "lines" for the Rex6000[4]. This was my favorite game
for that unit!
