$200 dollars? wow.
theyre really going for the throat of the palm OS device market.
RE: $200 dollars? wow.
I predict Palm will do it first, by basically shoehorning the lackluster m130 screen into the Zire casing, but the way Sony are charging along, they might surprise us all.
It'd be great, however, to see Sony somehow manage to come up with a color Clie that took AA batteries and had a reasonable button layout.
If nothing else, Palm stil offers the m125 to hardcore users who might be in the middle of nowhere for so long that they have no reasonable power source than disposable alkalines. Yes, I know there are gimmicky solar chargers and whatnot but those are probably more hassle than they are worth.
(One of the neatest additions I ever had for my old MicroTac cellphone was a huge piggyback AA battery adaptor. It snapped onto the back of the cellphone and gave you 30-40 mins of talk time with 6 AA batteries. Yes, it was wasteful but if you were really in a pinch or your car died on the side of the road, it was a lifesaver).

This:
... huge piggyback AA battery adaptor. It snapped onto the back of the cellphone and gave you 30-40 mins of talk time with 6 AA batteries.
should explain why you haven't seen this:
a color Clie that took AA batteries
Clie' (Which seems like the natural plural, IMO), stuffed full of propriatary multimedia hardware, are notorious battery hogs. So far, nothing beats a Li-ion pack for size/weight-to-watt/hour ratio. A alkaline-powered color Clie' would be EVEN bigger, and have an EVEN shorter battery life.
A Li-Ion-or-AAA arrangement like the one in the Handera 330 might work for them, but would still make the physical unit signifigantly larger.
...and had a reasonable button layout.
Can't help you on that one. Maybe they make more sense if you're japanese.

(Why do some people say you can kill two birds with one stone when it's hard enough killing one bird with two stones?)
RE: SJ whatever: I must carp!
Heh, well, the Sony Clie line has had 320x320 high res for over a year (probably 2 years?? i forgot, i bought one when the first came out)... (A great thing for early adopters)...
and well, 320x320 for us is BORING.
Palm users and Sony haters finally got a taste of 320x320, just wait till you get 320x480...
I myself just got myself an NR70 a couple months ago (my 5th Clie).

RE: SJ whatever: I must carp!
i loved my handera 330, but software compatibility was more of an issue than i would have liked, though not horrible. software graffiti is the best.
320x480 is the future, hopefully. one hardware resolution to rule them all.

RE: SJ whatever: I must carp!
That's silly. At worst, it's going to use 50% more power than a 320x320. In practice, it's probably much less than that.
RE: SJ whatever: I must carp!
How about 61% of my life ... I'm 44, started using computers when I was 17. I guess that makes me an old fart.

sj-22 "bump" on the back ?
just one question, does the sj-22 have the same small "bump" (where the "batteries" of sl/10 should be) on the back as sj-30 does ?
i mean, is the casing _exactly_ the same with the only exception of that black "frame" around display ?
if this the cas i would prefere sj-30 to sj-22 since i like the silver design more :o)
