I like the color
RE: I like the color
- Below the screen on the front of the N610C are the hardware buttons with a single rocker switch for up and down. These are a bit harder to push than I'm used to, which makes fast games that involve a lot of button pushing more difficult than they ought to be.

Also, the 610 case is nearly identical to the 710. It stands to reason that any shortcomings of the 710 would also be in the 610.
In reality, I think the buttons are "okay". Not the greatest, but certainly usable. They do take some getting used to though, and I suspect someone with larger fingers may have a more difficult time adjusting to them.
Sony buttons
this device, as well as Sony's other new Clies, are for doing anything but the very basic functions.
It seems odd that Sony would have dropped the ball on these as the rest of the unit is outstanding.
I also hope other manufacturer's begin supporting the Clie series with some descent add-on peripherals.
And yes I know Targus already has the great stow-a-way keyboard available and mine is on order.
Out of my 17 different Palm OS PDAs, this one is just about to become my favorite.
RE: Sony buttons
Gee, have there actually been 17 different models, or do you have duplicates?
Palm Pilot 1000
Palm Pilot 5000
Palm Pilot Personal
Palm Pilot Professional
Palm III
Palm IIIc
Palm IIIe
Palm IIIx
Palm IIIxe
Palm V
Palm Vx
Palm VII
Palm VIIx
Palm m100
Palm m105
Palm m125
Palm m500
Palm m505
Well, that's 18 right there, and I haven't even counted Sony, Handspring, or Handera. Gosh, these things pile up, don't they?
Peace,

P.S. I have to agree on the Clie button issue, in particular the rocker button. It is not at all easy to use and downright frustrating.
RE: Sony buttons
Hurry with the I/O peripherals, SONY

Soon, please I'm in desperate need of replacing my Vx & Omnisky.

Whatever next generation device I buy will most likely be based on which has the best wireless internet options.
Great device at a great price!!!

Hmmm....how 'bout a reward for this moron. "Most useless post of the millenium" perhaps?
RE: Great device at a great price!!!
And if I lost it I would buy another one in no time.
Looks to me you can't afford $400.00......Perhaps there's a lot of people that can't afford it too....Maybe you should use this way of communicating to let people benefit just as all of us do......I'm sure you benefit as well from this site.......Don't be a fool?

I can't wait to find a 610C so I can smell for myself...

Faster than 710C?
not available
The only high end pda's available here are the m-series from Palm. I cannot find a HandEra. Handspring has just released two models, one of which is identical to an existing one.
This new Sony would easily sweep away all the competition over here because there isn't any. The only alternative is an iPaq. A lot of them around here.
Maybe I should get one too.
Sony, are you guys reading this?
RE: not available
Thyl Engelhardt
incorrect on one point i noticed.
false!
clie s300 has an 8mb stick. the lowest of the low clie's. (and the ONLY clie model available in england/uk... and i assume rest of europe...)
Hi-rez black and white
Multiple Palm OS on one PC???
together. Thanks for any help or ideas.
RE: Multiple Palm OS on one PC???
Ferhedio.
Hard Case?
Wireless? Camera?
Is anyone aware of any other options for the PEG-N610C other than MyLo for going wireless.
Any power users out there who have tried the camera? How does it perform?
RE: Wireless? Camera?
I'm in the process of writing a review of the Sony Memory Stick camera. So far I think it is pretty cool.

No memory stick
One comment that I really agree with is that the buttons are too small (I'd say way to small) Sony really dropped the ball on this and I haven't seen anyone mention of it. If you play games that use the buttons it makes it much more difficult. In contrast, the Prism buttons are excellent, they're a nice size and they have a great resistance to them.
All in all, I love my 710C and I'm psyched for the 4.1 release.
