Hi-Res+ Clie

[pruss]

Are there any Hi-Res+ Clies other than the NR, NX and NZ? If not, is there anywhere other than ebay one can still buy an NR (I am looking for something not too expensive).

Found this reference to a NR70 at http://s1.amazon.com/exec/varzea/ts/exchange-glance/Y02Y5853383Y9576332/qid=1053156715/sr=1-3/103-7620945-6144659 see what you think.

No, at least not yet.  Everyone since Moses has been waiting for SONY to release a relatively small tablet model with a Hi-Res+ screen, but so far SONY has been completely unable or unwilling to bring such a product to market.  Such a screen in a small T-series form factor would have terrible battery life, even worse than the notoriously poor battery life on previous high-end SONY models.

Once the Garmin iQue is released, there will be a large tablet model with GPS and VG (virtual [or soft] graffiti), but this is a rather large model and we don't know yet what the battery life will be like or how well the VG will be integrated into other Palm OS programs.

I clicked through to PDAtrader.com from this page and they had an open box NX or NV with a case for around ~$350 and Sony has refurbished ones for $329 at Sony Style under clearance. If I had not recently gotten a new PDA I would be looking at those. I don't want anything but a PDA (no camera, phone, mp3 player etc) and would love to have the bigger key board or the option for tablet mode. I am one of those waiting for a hi-res+ T style.
