How am I doing with Getting Things Done?

As many people indicating, I am also overwhelmed by so many wonderful and classic tools for my GTD implementation. I used Pocket Informant on my Pocket PC (Toshiba E750 and Dell X50V) then I return back to papers and pens. I have a A5 Filofax Organizer but it is too big for commuters like me. Then I bought a Pocket Filofax Organizer and I thought it a little thicker. Now I am a little distracted by MOLESKINE. I have used MOLESKINE but it was meant to work as INBOX.
I am thinking to use MOLESKINE RULED POCKET as the calender and POCKET CAHIERs as my Next Action (NA) Lists and Project Lists. To separate NA and Project lists into two separate books has a benefit, it is easier to check each project with corresponding NAs. Besides, I do not really need to grab three books (Calendar, NA List, Project List) at the same time except weekly review. (Oh, weekly review. A topic needs another post to discuss.)
I really hope I could settle down my GTD tools and work on my GTD implementations.

May I ask you what Filofax Pocket did you use? I plan to buy one and use it as Agenda and GTD System. I'm new to GTD (a few days) and looking for the solution I'll like the most. I thought of
- Filofax Pocket Guildfold Extra Slim (binder of 11mm high)
http://www.filofax.fr/store/SEURLF/ASP/SFS/DISPLAY./SIZEID.2/RANGEID.99/DSIZEID.2/SFE/organiser.htm
and use it as my agenda (putting only actual month+3 months) and my GTD system (notebook, hPDA).
- my wallet for other stuffs
OR
- Filofax Pocket Ranger
http://www.filofax.fr/store/SEURLF/ASP/SFS/DISPLAY./SIZEID.2/RANGEID.26/DSIZEID.2/SFE/organiser.htm
which has kinda wallet integrated in the front side (but then... isn't it too thick in the back pocket? the binds are 15mm).
And then for @home and @work, a Filofax A4 Guildford Zip
http://www.filofax.fr/store/SEURLF/ASP/SFS/DISPLAY./SIZEID.7/RANGEID.107/DSIZEID.7/SFE/organiser.htm
which will act as my tickler and adresse book and card holders and inbox. I also think of syncing my agenda with Gcal and my phone, and syncing my adress book with plexo.
Btw, which Filofax Pocket are you using? And for what purposes?
Isn't it too thick in the pocket? In what pocket do you put it?
Btw for the moment I use hPDA + Moleskine when I'm out, and @work an A4 binder as a tickler and an A4 agenda I don't like, and no adress book yet!
