User Submitted Sony CLIE PEG-SL10 Handheld Reviews (cont...)Date: 2002-12-20 It's only ok; pay a bit more and there are clear differences I just got this a week ago and it is awful, when compared to what else is available. Sony's CLIE line is awsome, but this model is the lowest of their low. The screen is hard to see under less than perfect light conditions, even with the lime green backlight (I was expecting white, as it says on Sony's website, appearently a different letter at the end of the model number was the difference here). I got a Sony CLIE PEG 615-C and the difference is huge. Add a color screen to the CLIE's 320 x 320 and you have a beautiful display that is easy to read. I only paid 229 for it at Costco, so the color screen, extra memory, rechargable internal lithium battery, and cradle (this is a more useful feature than you would think, especially after using the SL10's USB cord) were well worth the extra 100 dollars. The SL 10 features are awsome (far better than anything you could get in another similarily priced PDA) and the 320x320 is impressive even on this monochrome screen. If you are willing to pay a little more, what you get in return is more than worth it. If you must stick with a ceiling price around $130, I would take this one over a PALM model any day, as it's screen resolution and included features are superior by far. Ultimately however, you can do better by paying a bit more. It's been worth it in my opinon. Date: 2002-11-25 Great value, best for this price range I got my SL10 about a week ago, and so far it works great. I put some software on it (the software that comes with the device and some other stuff), as much as I can put in 6 MB (I wanted to save some space for extra stuff I'll put, and I don't wanna ever have a problem with too small memory left. I'm probably gonna buy a memory stick, but I don't think I (or any other user who has average needs) will need mor ethan 32 MB. The resolution is great, I can see everything clearly, and it's much better than the 160x160 resolution. Really it's a really big difference. I really like this device, but there's one thing that I'd like to have, and I don't think is possible for the SL10; I'd really like to have an MP3 player, but as much as I know, there ain't anything for the SL10. Of course, if I'd have it I'd use much more memory, but whatever, I guess I won't have an MP3 player INSIDE my PDA for 2 more years. Whatever. Every time I'll make one more step.
