The Sony CLIE PEG-N710C combines the compact size and simple personal information manager applications of a Palm OS, the power of a Pocket PC, and the panache of the company the brought the world the Walkman. The only catch: Sony has made the CLIE more complicated, thanks to competing digital audio formats, two different types of Memory Stick, and a convoluted process for transferring music between PC and PDA.The Sony CLIE PEG-N710C comes with MP3 audio playback and Flash Memory: 4 MB + 8 MB MemoryStick removable memory.

Nice While It Lasted
After about 12 months of non-reckless-use the MP3 audio jack went bad, only delivering one channel of sound. Shortly thereafter, the jog rotary dial stopped functioning. At the 18 month point, the touch screen gradually went farther and farther out of calibration to the point which it became unusable. Sadly, I can no longer use the PDA and it is destined for the electronic graveyard.

Slick PDA
I picked this CLIE up last year when it first came out. I have been really happy with its performance overall. This CLIE does everything a PALM would do, and it adds a much better display, (color, very sharp), and an MP3 player. I travel one to two times a month and this CLIE goes with me everyhwhere. Not only does it keep my schedule but I slap on a Targus keyboard and I easily compose word documents. This is also handy for graduate school as a laptop is cumbersome to have in class, the CLIE simply makes taking notes easier, and takes up less space. This CLIE is visually pleasing in appearance, and performs at a high level.

Another great part of this CLIE is that it has the memory stick technology. Part of the travel I do requires working with a digital camera, I can take pictures, and view them on the clie simply by transfering them via the memory stick. You will be happy with this PDA, and soon your CLIE will go with you everywhere.
