I was in Oregon today and got a chance to swing by Fry's to check out the new PDA's.
The sales guy didn't know of any new Clie's, but there was the NX73 sitting on the shelf.
I spent quite a bit of time playing with it and comparing it side-by-side with the NX70V and NZ90 that were next to it.
I have to say that I was very impressed. The color is great: the keys really stand out against the dark background. The size, as reported, is slightly smaller than the NX70. Very well-made and looks like it will be a great machine. Too bad the CF slot doesn't retract with a memory card in the slot...
Other than that, good thing the price was $499, or else I would have been tempted to save the 8.8% sales tax and pick one up, BlueTooth or no BlueTooth.
