Sony Clie NX73v...works pretty good for now!
Just wanted to come in and mention I found a complete in pristine condition NX73v this last week at a Thrift Store. I paid a fair amount but it had everything...the PDA with it's stow-n-go stylus, the cradle with cradle stylus, 128MB MS card, all the cords and all the doco....but like I say it was a bit pricey...$15.95+tax....
Did I pay too much? hehehehehehe...sorry, just bragging...A LOT.... ![]() This is my first PDA, and I am an old time PC guy...but never ever saw a true need for one. Until it became too hard for me to hold a book in my hands... I installed Mobipocket and have d/l'd a few books from Baen to see how well reading will work...it is GREAT so far because it has a backlight and I can read in bed and not bug my better half. I am getting just about 3-hours battery life but have ordered a new battery. Next I'll add a CF wifi card and should be good to go with our muni wifi as there is a somewhat usable web browser built in... But my real motivation was ebook reader until I can get a decent simple e-ink device. Anyway, I wanted to pass a long that is someone finds a good deal on this PDA (it's color btw) it's pretty danged impressive running Mobipocket for Palm OS 5.x. I would say that any price under about $75 a decent price. Over that ya might as well consider the eBookwise device for about $125. OK, back to doing the NY Times Sunday crossword on my new toy! hehehehe.... ![]() |

A PDA is good but why dont you try to have any latest mobile phone as there are many which provide the facility of both the mobile phone and PDA.

I used to have a Clie NX-60. It used to make a great reader, especially with MobiPocket. Unfortunately, I've misplaced mine.

I used to read on Sony Clies but 18 months ago switched to a Palm T|X because my old Clie broke when I dropped it on a tile floor and the T|X has a huge screen for a PDA. The PDA phones don't work for me because of the smaller screen and I *hate* the tiny keyboards. But LG is coming out with a new phone similar to the iPhone that I will take a look at to replace my current phone and maybe PDA.
