And I'd pick the NX80 all over again, even with everything that's out.
Great choice and enjoy it!

Well, my vote is defintely the NX80!
(Coming from someone who owns several PDA's. My husband and I had a T3 here, but returned it for several reasons, the destruction of several hundred dollars worth of SD cards being one)
I have a T|C which had been my ranking favorite until the NX80 which I just got. What a beautiful device! Screen is just gorgeous. Memory is not a problem-I'm able to do everything on it I do with the T|C, and it has the wonderful bonus of a 1.3 MP camera, which I use almost everyday to capture impromptu moments that I never would have captured otherwise, as well as sometimes even a substitute for my stand alone camera, out of sheer convenience. Husband has a Zire 71, NZ90, we also have a TT (and some others) so I can speak from having many present and past PDA's. I'm not bashing my T|C-still like it very much, great PDA, but the NX80 for me is the ultimate. The NX80 is wonderful and can do so much all in one.

Is it possble in this forum to be instructed to buy something else except NX80? Any way the only serius advantage that the T3 has over the NX is that it can work on Landscape mode.
PS: I dont cosider the faster CPU, and the bigger memery a serius advantage for the applications that we use now at least.

hey loop
you live in hk?
although I'm in Toronto, I got my nx73 from Hong Kong
you want to a cheap nx80, I suggest going to the computer city in
"Tshum Tshing Po" of Kowloon.
there's two computer plaza there, and one of them is called Golden City I think, I was there in the summer and I can't remember exactly, but anyway there's a store there that sell the nx80 for 3800 + free MS BT stick.
I got the nx73 because I didn't need the bt/camera.
Good luck.
Hi bighornsheep and all >.<
Thanks for your infor.the 2 computer mall @ Sham Shui Po are Golden Computer mall and Golden Building.I was there last weekend and the best quote of the 80V is @ 3580 without any BT but a free CD-rom of Chinese in-put which i dont need.also the 80V is a Japanese Version and without any offical warrenty....I dont dare to even touch it althu the price is good.......had some bad experince with my digi-Cam which i bought without warrenty >.<! Guess will settle with 3880 with 24 mths interests free instalment. :p

Well, I'd vote for the NX80, which shouldn't come as any big surprise given that I've already voted with my wallet... It all boils down to what you intend to do with it. For my part, I make extensive use of the keyboard, camera/video features, Remote Commander, in-line audio remote, WiFi, Flashplayer, and PicselViewer - all things that you can't do with a TT3. And, thanks to its clamshell design, I don't need a case. If these things weren't at the forefront of my usage patterns, the TT3 would definitely be on my shopping list. It's smaller (not so much so with a case, though), lighter, can do landscape (which I can already do with PalmReader and PicselViewer), and has built-in Bluetooth (which I don't have any use for - yet). Also, it's a heckuvalot cheaper, which is a good thing no matter how you slice it. Oh yeah, it's faster and has more memory - though, as previous posters pointed out, with JackFlash you get 31MB (which is more than I've been able to fill so far), and to date we have yet to see any Palm apps that run appreciably better on the 400Mhz XScale PXA255 processor in the TT3, as opposed to the 200Mhz XScale PXA263 in the NX80.
I guess what I'm saying is that IMHO, the TT3 is nice, but the NX80 is still King.

PS - I did get to play with a TT3 at Staples the other day... Damn... I have to give credit where credit is due and tip my hat to Palm. That's one sweet PDA. Not exactly my cuppa tea, but sweet nonetheless.
