I know her!
I bought my Clie at Best Buy (which, given what I've been reading here, really wasn't) for around $600, and then a MS for around $50. I think that's all my wife would let me spend on it. Someday, I'd like to get the CF Driver and a CF card, but that'll be a while from now.
Money SUX!

I invested around $ 1300 in my NX70 including chargers, MS, Carrying Cases, etc.
Now I stoped waiting for the new one with more memory, I urgently need more memory. I do not write on any paper, just on my Clie and I have more info than my machine can handle. I do not have games on it, just on the MS.
I URGENTLY NEED THE NEW ONE :cool: , I hope in less than one month have it, if not I will move to the new Palm even if I have to buy all accesories new, it is imperative for me :mad:
I do not know others handle tons of info with this few memory, if you know please let me see it PLEASE :) ;) :D

I bought my brand new NR on eBay for $380. My 128mb stick was a present from my dad, and I don't have a case or screen protectors. the only thing I bought was a car charger for $10 on eBay. :D Edit: w/shipping! :D LOL

Oh do I really want to add this all up?
NX70 $599, Car power $29, 5 128M memory sticks about $200, 32M stick $16, WiFi $17, Targus belt case $10, Bible $29, FreeCell $19, QuickWord, $19, 2 sync/charge cables $35, 256M CF $49, CF driver $27, Musicmatch Jukebox $29, battery pack $39, earphones $39: totals $1172 - throw in taxes and your at $1200 easy.
But I really like this thing though. I have no plans to switch to anything else or any suggested next model from Sony. I have a laptop and this is like its little brother I can carry all the time. I have little interest in the NZ because of the price and size.

NX70 - 599
case - 20 (piece o'crap soon to be replaced)
MS(128) - 50
scr prot. - 12
software - erm.... a bit :)
All in all, not too bad. I already had a stylus/pen combo I love and another MS for backups, so that helped. Of course, now I need a different case... *sigh*

case - 20 (piece o'crap soon to be replaced)...
OK, which case is being replaced and which ones are you considering? I'm looking for a case too...
I noticed in a previous case someone spent $150 for one???
I spent $149.99 for a vaja case...(just like the design)...and it was customized.

*dusting off my soapbox* Okay, I got a Sumdex PDA/PPC case because it allowed me to carry my cell phone at the same time, my checkbook fits into it, and hey! lots o'padding for my NX. (I was even willing to ignore my hatred for *gag* velcro.) And it was cool! My partner saw mine and ordered one too. Now they are both coming apart in the exact same place - serious design flaw. I contacted Sumdex (the cases have a lifetime warranty) and they took over a week to respond. My choice is to PAY to ship the cases back (non-refundable) and leave both PDA's unprotected while they decide to repair or replace. Maybe I'm being too picky, but that's just not working for me. *crawling down and kicking the soapbox back under my desk*
I'm thinking Bellagio.

NX60, $299 at CompUSA
Bluetooth MS, $120 from Expansys
Eruware Driver, $27
Covertec Case, $40
Already have Memory sticks from my Sony camera! It pays to rationalize!
Will buy Compact Flash memory eventually.
WiFi card before the $50 rebate runs out, though I am waiting for another sweet deal like the one mentioned on the list!
Also want to get one or two spare batteries.
It was pure stroke of luck to get the NX60 at $299. I was comparing prices on a Sunday morning and was at the store before they even knew the price came down $100!
All in all, a lot of functionality for under $500!

15 - Cheap Case with initial purchase of NX70
100 - Software (at least)
35 - Rip-Off Case (my everyday case)
120 - (3) 128MB MS
50 - PreZent Case for my "rough" handeling areas
60 - ebooks
That's not all, but I'm going to stop thinking about it before I think about it too much.
I've gone days without watching TV or without turning on my computer (retreats, trips), but I'm never without my NX!!

I'd say between $1000 - $1100 counting the software, case, wi-fi, second cradle, ms, analog modem, screen protectors, stylus, etc, etc, etc,

Unfortunately I go thru PDA's like bottle of water so I try to buy only the critical accessories such as an extra power charger or a car charger. I try not to buy a case as I use my clie too much and don't like the hassle of getting it out of the case every time I want to use it.
