Comments on: TRGpro Price Drop
Rumors have been circulating for months that TRG, which recently renamed itself HandEra, will be releasing a new model with a more up-to-date design and a better screen. The TRGpro hasn't had a major hardware change since its release in October of 1999.

RE: This is too much
--GrouchoMarx
No way will you see a color Clie by May 1
Clie was originally not slated for US release at all, and that the
software was adapted for the Japanese Palm OS. I think if Sony
really moves, you may see it by Christmas.
So far it appears the increased resolution has noticeably slows down
the handheld, so while 320x320 is great, you take in a speed
penalty. This is probably also why Palm didn't introduce this into
the M505, and why Palm is going to ARM chips.
Larry Garfield, you idiot
The HandEra "X" will be released on April 30, 2001. It will retail for $349.95 and will be available through a number of retail outlets. It is about the size of a Palm Vx and has all of the features leaked to the media in recent months (MP3 support, CF/SD slots, improved monochrome screen, etc.).
If you're planning to get a PDA, wait until you've seen the new model from TRG/HandEra.
No, they're wise to keep quiet.
If they let out news of the new unit long enough before the new product came out, they could literally go out of business in the time before the new product actually arrived. It's happened before in the computer industry, the classic example being Osborne computers and the announcement of the Osborne II.

yawn......Sam's Club has been selling the TRG Pro for $250
Here in Phoenix, AZ, we've been able to purchase the TRG Pro for $249.95 from Sam's Club since mid-February!
Some of you may not know this, but ANYONE can get a membership to Sam's Club.
Sure, it costs about $30 for the membership, but remember that that membership brings other advantages as well.
RE: No yawning, please
Also, this price reduction is significant because it might be a sign that a handheld price war is beginning or that HandEra will soon be releasing a new model. Or it might mean nothing of the sort.
In any case, no yawning matter.
