Abstract	This study investigated opinions of students regarding instructional use of PDAs (personal digital assistants). The study was conducted in the 4th semester elective course, BTO 204 - Business English at the Faculty of Education at Anadolu University. Purposeful sampling was applied in the current study. Five PDAs were distributed to sophomore students. Before students started using PDAs in Business English classes, they were given training on how to use PDAs. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with each student to investigate their reflections about using PDAs. Findings were analyzed through inductive coding technique and the results of the analyses were interpreted, which suggested that participants generally had positive feelings towards using PDAs during instruction.
