I think the only times I've seen anybody use PDAs to exchange contact 
information were at IETF meetings, in the hallways, when people had time 
to kill.  It just takes too long.  Typically, when two companies are 
meeting, and you've got, say, four people on each side, everybody swaps 
business cards in under a minute, and you're done.  Doing the same thing 
via IR would hold the meeting up too long.
