All,
Due to a cracked screen on my NZ90 (discussed in an earlier thread about a month ago) I'm going to need to replace it. I love the NZ90 but before I trot out and get a new one, I was wondering if anyone has any scuttlebutt on future high end Clie releases. I am particularly interested in upgrading to the latest (or near latest) Palm OS.
If I have one complaint about Clies, it's that one can't upgrade the OS. Which basically sucks.
Note: I'm not interested in the UX (the camera is too low-rez).
Thanks,
Steph

I ordered two new T3's this evening. I have plenty of Sony cams and the one in the NX80 didn't get used all that much.
The last serious rumor I had heard was something would be out shortly before Thanksgiving.

The T3 does look nice - but it's still not tempting to pull me away from NZ90. Although, the T3 is way cheaper!!!
And thanks for mentioning the before Thanksgiving rumor. It was my guess that they would do something prior to Christmas...

I think it's a good possibility Sony will use their new TV tuner chip in the next NZ. I also think we may see Video Capture at 320x240. It should run OS5.3 I would imagine. Rumors are that OS6 will be in devices and available Q2 2004.
I love rumors, we should start a Cliesource scandal sheet. Headline: Illicit affair between ClieNX80 and TungstenT leads to Bastard offspring named T3! A source close to the shameless couple was heard to say "The parents are really heartbroken, that little T3 doesn't know which way is up!"

Oh - that is very funny!!!!!!!
I'm actually surprised that Clie Source does not have a rumor forum. I actually went looking for one....It seems like a natural fit...Unlike a Tungsten and a Clie...

Sony is lagging behind and I am getting tired of it's proprietary nature and missing out on a lot. Finally someone came out with a PDA that has a widescreen browser that wasn't shrunken! Also the audio has more potential and now can actually use Audible's books!

Any more rumors out there?
I have an NZ with an expiring screen and a one time replacement plan from CompUSA. So, do i tough it out for a few months or do I replace my NZ with a new NZ?

All I know is I am waiting for Os 6
AS fot the t3 all the stuff I have Read says It ROCKS and is the best Had held ever. better than Any PPC and PalmOS.
But I will keep using my Nz90 for now.
