Strengths: sleek, crispy screen, great mp3 player, useful onboard keyboard, nice swifle screen for screen protection
Weakness: useless low camera resolution, little built-in memory, too many less useful features, non-standard web browser, bulky CF slot (WLAN card sticking out), expensive and low capacity memory stick
I have had it for over 8 months now and haven't really used it as frequently as I like to. I wouldn't recommend it unless all you crave for is mp3 and beautiful images. It does come with very nice mp3 player (optional wired remote is nice too) and very crispy screens for images. Loading images is slow especially high res ones. But overall, it's a nice gadget for those two purposes. The CF slot...

Sony Clie PEG-NX70V PDA
Strengths: Fast. Quickly ready for use with 3rd party software. Ability to record text, audio, video and still pictures. Large screen with crisp colors.
Weakness: Not designed with a user replaceable battery. Would prefer better battery life. Keyboard keys too small for large hands.
I was surprised how quickly and easily it was to move all data and software from my Handspring Visor to the Sony Clie. On a few 3rd party software applications, you may need to upgrade to their latest updates to ensure proper functionality.
