Sony UX50 CLIE PDA
Strengths: Small and thin (excellent form factor), high resolution display, excellent keyboard with shortcut function to quickly access your favorite applications, built-in WiFi and Bluetooth.
Weakness: Only a few applications support landscape display (this will change very soon), only 3 hard buttons (typical Palm devices have 4 buttons) which has problems with many apps that use all 4 hard buttons
You will like the UX50--features pack in a very small and slim form. As I see more and more apps are supporting landscape display, I am pleased that I bought my UX50.
