I just bought one of the above handhelds. It's a pretty slick piece of kit, much quicker to use than a pocketPC (PalmOS seems much more stable) and the display is of a very good quality. The built in camera is also better than I expected.
The only downside is that the only action you can perform via the USB cradle is to synchronise with Outlook. No other data transfer allowed (unless you have a memory stick) and no access to any network features on your PC, unless you have bought either the Bluetooth memory stick or the Wifi network card. In this area the pocketPC's win, using a Toshiba E740 I was able to connect to the internet via my PC and also use my mobile to connect, via iRDA, within minutes of setting it up.
I have a Sony Ericcsson T68i with camera but unfortuanately the Jpeg version that the mobile uses is incompatible with the Clie and so I can't transfer pictures from the mobile phone, though I can send them the other way!
It a nice piece of kit and does just what it says on the box. But it requires the purchase of other peripherals before it fully usable which is a downer.
Has anybody else had any experience with these PDAs?
