  Overall Rating: 5 Star Review

  Duration of ownership:5 Months

  Strengths: Great Functionality, Great Usability, Great Piece of Sony Equipment!

  Weaknesses: Screen is attatched by a swivel mount that doesn't seem very strong (but it's lasted quite a while with no problems)

  Overall Evaluation: This product exemplifies the quality standards of Sony. While the screen seems like it may be a bit on the delicate side, there is nothing that I have for this machine other than praise. The Palm OS is great, and the program bumdle from Sony is wonderful for the traveler or business person. I would highly reccomend this product!

  Duration of ownership:3 Days

  Strengths: Built in camera, built in keyboard, high resolution screen

  Weaknesses: Getting internet access (I still couldn't get it to work)

  Overall Evaluation: I bought this PDA after reading the user reviews here. The PDA has very good color display and a nice built-in camera that not only takes pictures, but also records video. The only problem I have with it so far is getting the connection to the internet with its Netfront software. I purchased the Sony PEGA-WL110 WiFi adapter and was able to connect it to my wireless router at home. However, I was unsucessful in getting access to the internet. Other than this problem, this is one nice looking PDA.

  Strengths: This PDA does so much & does it well!!!

  Weaknesses: Memory stick is needed for some of the functions & they are sort of expensive.

  Overall Evaluation: I'm amazed at what all this PDA can do: camera, MP3 player, voice recorder, remote control, etc.(Not to mention keeping you organized!) It has a decent camera, better than the one I used on a different PDA. Graphics are really good. Also, I have found that it is easy to use with a lot of convienence buttons and a scroll dial on the side. I've never seen anything like it.

  Duration of ownership:20 Days

  Strengths: Built in camera. Clear screen.

  Weaknesses: No built in wifi.

  Overall Evaluation: I Heard Of This PDA In Circuit City. Everytime I Go There, I Practice Graffiti On The PDAs All The Time. When I Went There With My Mom, I Took A Picture Of Her With The Built-In Digital Camera That's Included On The PDA. I Heard About The Highest Resolution It Goes: 1,280 x 960 Pixels. When I Bring It With Me Everyday To School, I Can Take Pictures Of My Friends That Are Girls. I Also Heard This Has A Built-In MP3 Player. Then I Be Able To Listen To Music On This Thing. Then I Have Both iPod And Sony NX80V To Listen To Music To. But I Have To Store My Music On A Memory Stick. But The Memory Sticks Are Kind Of Expensive. But, I Still Can Afford The Memory Sticks In The Store. I Don't Know You Can Carry Around Your Neck If It's 8.0 Ounces.

  Strengths: Bright and crisp screen; Can read Compact Flash cards as well as Memory Stick; 1.3 MPix camera is decent.

  Weaknesses: Pictures can be blurry in low light; Stylus is a little annoying; Not exactly 32MB of RAM. (16MB RAM + 8MB ROM).

  Overall Evaluation: I previously owned a Sony NX60 so I am very familiar with this line of CLIE's. This model has quite a number of improvements over the previous model.1. Collapsable compact flash slot makes it thinner2. Full 16MB of storage space3. Can read Compact Flash memory cards.4. Brighter screen.There are a few drawbacks.1. Native media applications can only read from memory stick. (although patched versions can be found on the internet)2. Keyboard usability has been improved, but it still can be a pain to use esp when entering numbers. I only use it ocassionally. 3. Not really 32MB RAM. It's 32MB total memory comprised of 16MB RAM, and 8MB ROM. All the default apps are located in ROM so you have all 16MB to play with.

  Strengths: Software integrated into ROM, Stability, Accessories galore!

  Weaknesses: Wish it came with built in WiFi and maybe a bit more RAM

  Overall Evaluation: This thing is in one word...AWESOME. For those who want productivity in their PDA, this is the one. Very decent camera, many software options and so easy to use. I am a previous Palm user, and I really think the CLIE line blows away for now any Palm model. The only drawback is the uber-expensive WiFi adapter, but trust me it's worth it. It's like a mini laptop! And Sony keeps on updating their drivers etc. You have to respect a company who is really trying to support their products.
