When did the NR70 first ship?

Just out of curiosity, when did it actually hit the consumer shelves? I know it was announced at CES. That would be the March 2001 CES, right?

From what I can piece together from things saved on my hard disk (since some PDA sites are still down due to the worm), it seems to have been the last week of April when they actually arrived in stores.

It was actually announced at Palmsource back in last February, and then shipped in late April.

Wow, my baby's not even a year old and it's already the old man on the block.

Welcome to Clie world. I've had one Clie or another since January, 2001, and have never had one for over a year. Longest I made it was 9 months. Shortest was 2 months.

I thought it went on sale May 5, 2002? BTW, medcat99, like your avatar ;)

May sounds right to me aswell.

Actually, I thought it was May too, but that's just from memory. I have nothing to back it up.

Actually, according to Palminfocenter it looks like early may....
