I Got Another UX50!

[dragonsgames]

I'm posting from it now via WiFi :D

And at end of that post the battery is nearly empty right hehe ;-) just kidding, congrats for having that UX, still an awesome device. :)

[dragonsgames]

Amazingly... it wasn't. I got OK battery life with the backlight at half... still not very good battery life, though... :rolleyes:

Well,

As soon as my paycheck comes in, it is out with the UX-50 and in with the VAIO UX 280P.

Too bad the UX-100 (or whatever) never made it.

Yes, UX is an amazing device... I didnt use it really, specially since i got my Treo i dont use it that often...
I was thinking of selling my UX50 with some extra accessories... or should i keep it? ;-)

I don't use mine that often, but it is so unique, that I keep it for it's novelty.

PS. Your avatar kinda freaks me out.

Have you seen the HTC's UMPC-Like Pocket PC over on Brighthand?

It really looks like the next model UX called Athena/Ameo

I didn't like the keyboard on 280P and the HTC's is suspect.

DG,

Try to resist the urge to mod this one :D

I still have my UX50s, although they are sitting in a drawer seldom used.

[GadgetGuru05]

i love my ux50 too. always wanted to have one and finally get one but the only problem is that damn battery again..... :-(

[m0nkeyb0y]

The UX 280 is starting to look more and more appealing to me.... :D

Yeah, the only flaw I found so far: it doesn't run Cobalt. ;)

[foromerm]

Ha, no problem! ;) :o

Hmm, they are worth $250-$300 each.... I would sell a couple! ;)

[GadgetGuru05]

UX280!!! but it doesn't run Palm OS :-(

[m0nkeyb0y]

I think the time has come for me to seriously consider alternate handheld OSs.... :(

[fmc159]

me too! i actually find palm os very limiting. i already have an motorola mpx300 and an xda mini s so in a way i dont really need my clie anyway. Also it doesnt work properly with any of my wifi connections

[m0nkeyb0y]

I would transfer my PDA to Windows XP, but there is no way I would switch to Windows Mobile.

[fmc159]

yea i know, i would much rather have full xp on a pda, but although wm sometimes crashes+goes a bit pycho i find it much more feature filled than palm

32GB Flash instead of HD.

Has same battery life as UX. Figures, both have same name lol. The VGN-UX would be sick running Palm OS II or Windows Mobile.

UX50 is a lot more useful with the EB40! I wish I could do an internal battery mod though... the EB40 makes the UX a lot bigger. (not to mention not very good looking)
