have u all enough money to buy the newest clies???

[The Mad Dog]

If I look into a forum, sometimes I see something like this>

"Palm M505 -> Sony N710C -> Sony T-665 -> Sony NR70V -> Sony NX70V -> Sony NX80V
"

so my question: have u all won money in TV or what?
The NR/NX series costs all about 400-600$ when they were new.
The NR 70 for exapmle was released just 1 1/2 jear ago (i think)
One year later u buy a NX70V for 650 $ and 1/2 year later u buy a NX80 for the same price.

I do not think this is normal.
I won't loose more than 400$ just for ever have the newest and best model. This is what I think.

Guten Tag!

(say is my english good or bad):confused:

[kliro]

Well, most people on here are palm enthusiasts, so they save and save, and then get the new clie and then start to save again for the next model, but its fun! well English is my first language, and your a damsight better that I am ;);)

You're english is pretty good actually.

Some people may enjoy a good PDA over a nicer car so how they manage their money probably plays a role into it, it's like a hobby for some people. Maybe they are single and don't have a lot of payments to make, I don't know. Are in high school still?

[rjuhl]

Look at it this way,.

If I spent $500 on a new PDA, keep it for a year and then buy the latest greatest after the year, the 1st PDA cost me $41.66 per month.

That is not exorbinant for a 'hobby' enthusiast', especially when you consider the work these things do. Admittedly they also have a 'toy' aspect, but for me are primarily a work tool combined with some fun features.

I personally am OK with $50+ per month for the upgrade game.

[wellsjs]

All these people you cite's kids are naked and hungry! :D

[caipro]

hell yeah!! if they make it we will buy it!! hehe..
and some poor sucker always feels sorry for our kids and feeds them.. :)

[j0nblayz]

I usually sell my old clie's on ebay, that way i only loose like $100-$200 on my old clie's..

[clie_wannabe]

well... i change clie handhelds (and before that palm, ibm, handspring, and *yuck* pocketpc) once every six-months... yeah, it looks expensive...

but comparing with most japanese who spent MOST of their money on almost useless brand items like YVL, Bvlgari, etc. etc., mine is a lot cheaper...

what's more you could always sell you old handheld at several electronics 2nd-hand shop here in tokyo (and get to lose only at most 40% of the original retail price)

great deal, isnt it?

[Dropzone]

hey, i recognised that change of pda, its from Ricelo! Man, you are featured! Haha. Err... u need to brush up a lot for your english. Very the Powderful... ;)

[yr3698]

thats wat im sayin the mad dog, it seems like people give their lives to clies.

anyways, i bought an nx70 for half the original price juz a couple months ago and im prety much bankrupt!!!:p

then again, im stil in HS and have a lowly job.....................not to mention my car payments.....................................

[Rick 098]

I hav an NX-60, and it is olmost a year old. My dad will pay me 200 wfor it when I upgrade!

[Rick 098]

PS, I went from a T-615 to a NX-60, and want to upgrade to the NX-80.

I haven't won any money (lately), but I work hard for it and have enough to play with after paying expenses and like others I often sell the older unit after buying the new one.

I've done the same with notebook computers.


(say is my english good or bad):confused:

I think your english is quite good.

[Pdasrock]

Sie sprechen besseres Englisch, als ich Deutsches... spreche

Anyway, I am a highschool student and I've gone
Visor, IIIc, Nr70v, NX70v and I'm considering upgrading to an nx80 when the next line of clies come out. I work hard(err, sometimes... jobless right now) and am careful in spending my money. I sell all my old units. Also, because of my knowledge of clies I can fix them myself, so repair/new parts isn't a big issue. In fact, I am going to start a new ebay thing where I buy and fix old clies and sell them again for money.
But yes, for a 15 year old I am filthy rich...

[NJL!2016]

Nope. I have $8 to my name. Only $542 left for a NX80!

Palm m100> Sony Clie PEG-SL10> Sony Clie PEG-SJ22

As you can see, I only have enough money for the low-end handhelds

[loop]

I paid by C.Card 24 mths instalment progarm. and its interests free. not much of a pain

IIIc>M500>M505>NX80V

[qwertyuiop]

the nx70 is my first pda.... and i was in Hong Kong at the time i bought it, so it was cheaper than what i would have had to pay if i bought it in Australia (well, i assume so anyway).

would upgrade if i had the money, but it would seem so soon (just one year later...) so i'd feel kinda guilty if i did. maybe i'll save up and upgrade in 2005. i wonder what'll be out by then....

[bighornsheep]

I got the first 3 pda for under 300cnd (200 usd)

I purchased the m100 from future shop (kinda like best buy in US) with the warrenty package, and when it broke they gave me the m105, then I was having problems with the battery so I pay about 50cnd(34 usd) to get the S360. Eventually I wanted an mp3 player so I sold my S360 to this guy in school, and I got the T665C.

This summer when I went to Hong Kong, I decided to upgrade to nx73, and that's what I am using now.

I don't know about others in this forum, but I just like pdas because they are a great gadget to use other than my phone (Sony Ericsson T68i) which I might upgrade next year.

I do believe however some people here are just simily rich and can afford expensive devices. I've seen this guy here who has every single device since the N series.....man, that's just insane.

[ricleo]

hey that guy was talking about me! :p

I guess Singapore must be doing good economically, you must make some big stash of cash doing what you do.
*cough* fooling around cliesource every day *cough*

lol, just kidding I wish I could make money just fooling around here too.

[ricleo]

What's wrong with spending money on stuff I like? I manage my finances well enough to afford the gadgets I like. No, I'm not rich, no I don't beg, rob, steal nor gamble(I don't buy lottery either).....

Haha, Wellsjs, nope I have no kids and hence of course they are not starving :p

Why I manage to upgrade ever often? I always make sure I'm able to sell my Pda before I consider an upgrade. Haha.... I'm looking to sell my NX80v to get a UX-50... any takers?? :D

[Dropzone]

It is expensive to buy in SG, somemore, there is no exchange plan. I guess one can do it if he really wants to upgrade.

[ricleo]

Oh yah....I don't make a big stash of money doing what I do too bighornsheep :p I'm a final year university student now... hahaha...what do you mean by fooling around on Cliesource everyday :p

[phoenix_06]

Hi,
I replace my pdas when they are worn out (I use them a lot) or they are lost. The 610 was in a case on my belt and the clip broke off. The others just were not working well with lots of mistakes. I don't drink or smoke or do drugs so my pda is my main vice :D

[NJL!2016]

One time, I put my old m100 through the clothes washer.

[Edlin]

lol, don't worry we all that do the same thing.

I failed my first year history midterm because I was fooling around cliesource all the time in class.

[timage]

I hold onto my pda for a year or two and then I am so overcome with all of the new technology and applications (that I can't do on my old one) that I sell everything I can find to be able to get a new one.

One thing though, I was unwilling to drop $700 on the new UX when it came out, but I think I'm happier with the NX80 because it also lets me use CF cards.

My 2 cents (that's all I got, the rest is going toward the latest and greatest next year),

[BMEngineer]

Save up for the new OS6 device!

[BMEngineer]

Anyone here has parent's support whenever you want to get a new PDA?

[NJL!2016]

Nope, my parents despise my PDA fascination.

[ricleo]

My first PDA, the Palm M505 was a present from my parents for doing well enough in college to get to a nice course in the University, the rest of the upgrades, were through my own means :D They keep nagging at me for changing PDAs, but haha, when I upgraded through the Clamshell Clies, the NR and the 2 NXes, I simply kept quiet and they couldn't tell that I upgraded :p

[BMEngineer]

Hai yah at first I thought that I could use the pay for my industrial attachment for a new upgrade in case the new OS6 device comes out. However I was told that there might be no pay at all.....So I have to save up through other means.....
Ricleo, you have industrial attachment also rite?

[Fun Bob]

I'm a strictly a bargain shopper.

I just bought an NX70v several weeks ago for $150. It was open box, from Best Buy (the only accessories I got with it were stylus and synch cradle, no documentation or software but a friend has all that for the NX70 so no worries there). That is my first upgrade ever, my original PDA being a Clie S320 bought almost exactly 2 years ago. That one I bought new from Dell.com with 2 coupons. Was $200, I got it for $130.

I could afford to buy the newest one every time they come out, but that leaves less money for my other vices/luxuries. I only upgraded because the 160x160 monochrome screen just is so unpleasant to read. I like to use it with ebooks when I fly. The new color screen is so much easier on my eyes. Plus, I like having even a simple camera on hand at all times.

My original Clie is still in great shape after 2 years. I've carried that thing with me from New York to Japan a dozen times and it's circled the US several times. I don't have a case other than the standard flip over screen protector, and I just carry it in my shirt pocket/brief case. I plan on continuing to use it, mainly because of the Targus stowaway keyboard I have for it. I got that at Amazon.com for $15.

[timage]

Bargains can be dangerous. It's hard to kick the tires on a used clie.

[Rick 098]

Originally posted by BMEngineer

My first PDA was from my father, a T-615. (not his old one, new) (he never even owned a pda) When I upgraded, he bought it from me :) (we also got my mom a SJ-20 for christmas)

[sentient]

Both my PDAs are refurbished units I purchased from an online auction site. Sony looked these over and all the parts were there (except broken cable on T415 which was replaced by Sony at no charge). I saved a ton of money over buying new. I can't see paying $500 for a new PDA, that is too much. Also, I stuck with my T415 for a year before getting the NX-60.

[Pdasrock]

I paid 30$ for my visor(this is years ago of course) 70 for my IIIc(good deal as well) 350 for my nr, and 360 fr my nx. So I'm up to 80 minus the 390 after selling my old units and I gave one away.

That's great! The NX70 is a nice PDA-have one too; just got the NX80 almost 2 weeks ago. Open box for $349, which I think is great. Works perfectly fine, in new condition
What a sweet price you got-wow! And you're covered since you have a friend with the software-great! I know you'll enjoy it!

[Fun Bob]

I totally agree with you. Normally, I avoid used and even refurbed equipment. In this case, my NX70 was a display model that was bolted down to the counter. I thoroughly checked it, I even ran LCD analyzer on it before I took it. The only reason I went for it, is I have a 30 day full return gauruntee on it. 30 days to kick the tires. I"m not sure, but I think you would be hard pressed to get even a refurbed NX70v for $150.

[bighornsheep]

Ever since my S360 (open box) had problems with the battery, I stopped trusting open box items because I don't have all the time to deal with the problems they lead to.

That's just my 2-cents.

[Pdasrock]

Opposite with me. I have the time to find deal and don't have the money for new :D

[Spiral]

I've upgraded about once a year, first one my dad won (m100), second one I worked (i don't pay to take care of myself, so it was all goign towards the clie, and taxes), my new one...just savings, i'm broke now, till next year...

[BMEngineer]

Till next year when a new OS6 device comes out....I will get one.
Forgo the UX cos I'm broke after spending on the T3 :(

[BMEngineer]

Anyone looking forward for new NXs with OS6?
Will there be a revolutionary change in the design and Sony decides to ditch the NXs form?

[parmesian]

like all addictions, those of us who are addicted will do whatever we have to in order to get our fix (the newest "thing")

at less than $100 a month it sure beats cocaine:D :p

[Pdasrock]

i'll say!

[Fun Bob]

I like the quality, features, and screen of the NX70v. If I weren't so cheap, I would consider returning this and getting a T3. I don't want/need/use the keypad so I'd rather not have the bulk added with a 2 ply PDA. I like having even a crappy camera on hand. At the ready for the next time I'm abducted. ;)

babsk:

I negotiated HARD for that price. It was marked $249. I got the sales girl to cut me a $199 price. Then I made her get the manager and he offered me $149. Gotta do some camel trading. I tried to get it for $120 because it had no accessories, but they dug through a box of junk onhand and found a workable cradle (the hot sink cradle I have is model PEG-UC600, not the standard NX70 cradle) and a stylus that fit the case (it's not standard Sony). I worked the lack of software/documentation angle hard (all the time knowning my friend had a full set I could use).

[Pdasrock]

ha, nice, where did you get it?

[Fun Bob]

Best Buy in NJ. Went to 4-5 different Best Buys looking for open box PDA's. I find Best Buy tend to have more open box units than other stores and they give the managers a lot of autonomy on pricing. So I wasn't shopping for the right PDA, I was shopping for the right manager who would cut me a sweet deal. Plus you get a 30 day return policy and you can even purchase a 2 year extended service plan. I've really put the unit through its paces last 2 weeks and think I"m going to keep it. Still have 2 more weeks to decide. As far as I'm concerned, there is no risk involved here far less than say buying from Ebay. Like I said, screen had no scratches, plus I took LCD analyzer with me, IR beamed it over, and ran it in the store and found the screen had no errors I could find.

[Liqwid]

I happen to be fortunate in which I am able to purchase the newest clies but see no reason to. For what, O/S 6? That's a pretty dumb reason to ditch my NX80V. Unless the newst clie can outperform my NX80V, why bother?

Yeah, I know there are dumb people that will ditch their clie just to keep up with the "newest, latest, and greatest O/S" but they don't really understand the differences between O/S 5 and 6, let alone what O/S is short for. Maybe all those buzz words is all it takes to make their pea brain think they have to buy another PDA. But hey, it's their money so let them do what they want.

Yeah, I know the new clies will have a faster processor but is that enough to buy a new one? Not for me.

It has to have a better camera, maybe 5 megapixels like the new Cybershot DSC-T1, but the camera has to produce a higher movie quality. I still hate the fact that my NX80V movies look worse than my NX70V. I doubt the new clies will have a 5 megapixel camera but that's why i'm buying the DSC-T1 anyway. :D

I could care less about Bluetooth, Wifi, CF. I would like to see CF go and maybe have a voice module installed so it can read text outloud. Kinda like the GPS car cradle :D but just the text-to-voice. As for Bluetooth and wifi, keeping it a memory stick would be nice but there's alot of people whinning about how they can't do this and that when they are running it off a memory stick. Bunch of babies :D

I like the NX style as opposed to the UX. The UX is plain ugly to me. Maybe the N in NX is Nice and the U in UX is Ugly? :D Anyway, a faster processor would be kewl but it depends how fast. 400Hz? OoOoh... But no. That's plain retarded thinking that you can double the CPU and it's enough. Talk to me when you atleast hit 500Hz and up. Yeah, that might be asking for too much but then again, so is the $800 NZ with the 200Hz processor.

I honestly didn't think I would post in this thread seeing as I was hoping it would die :D but some people are carrying on with converations keeping it alive :(

Laterz :cool:

[Fun Bob]

UX *shivers*

Never. If Sony follows that path, I would rather become a palm convert. They are looking good with the T3.

The UX does out perform our NX80v with 30 fps video, built in wifi and bluetooth, and in a smaller form factor too.

Yeah, I know there are dumb people that will ditch their clie just to keep up with the "newest, latest, and greatest O/S" but they don't really understand the differences between O/S 5 and 6, let alone what O/S is short for.

Not all people do not understand the OS 5/6 differences and have a pea brain like you think they do. Some may really need the multi-tasking power of OS6 while surfing on wifi/BT via GPRS, and actually want to migrate OS based on needs instead of "buzz words"

Yeah, I know the new clies will have a faster processor but is that enough to buy a new one? Not for me.

no objection to this. that's not the reason people choose to buy the UX.

It has to have a better camera, maybe 5 megapixels like the new Cybershot DSC-T1, but the camera has to produce a higher movie quality. I still hate the fact that my NX80V movies look worse than my NX70V. I doubt the new clies will have a 5 megapixel camera but that's why i'm buying the DSC-T1 anyway. :D

No clie will be able to outperform a sony digital camera for the reason that Sony does not want Clie sales to cannibalize their digital camera sales. It would have been easy for Sony to have 320*240 video recording on the NR/NX/NZ?UX models, as proven by third party applications that managed to do 320*240 video recording on the humble NR70v 100k pixels camera, but Sony chose not to.

I could care less about Bluetooth, Wifi, CF. I would like to see CF go and maybe have a voice module installed so it can read text outloud. Kinda like the GPS car cradle :D but just the text-to-voice. As for Bluetooth and wifi, keeping it a memory stick would be nice but there's alot of people whinning about how they can't do this and that when they are running it off a memory stick. Bunch of babies :D

Once again, you have to look at other user's needs befor calling them "Bunch of Babies" You may not need BT/Wifi integrated, but others will have the need to be able to gain access to memory stick storage while surfing the net or emailing attachments from the memorystick.

I like the NX style as opposed to the UX. The UX is plain ugly to me. Maybe the N in NX is Nice and the U in UX is Ugly? :D Anyway, a faster processor would be kewl but it depends how fast. 400Hz?

Yeah, that might be asking for too much but then again, so is the $800 NZ with the 200Hz processor.

Once again, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Sure the NX80 is a looker, I like the design, which is why I have it, but IMO, the UX is down right sexy and slim, and looks great in a different way compared to the NX80.

I honestly didn't think I would post in this thread seeing as I was hoping it would die :D but some people are carrying on with converations keeping it alive :(

I didn't really want to reply to this post of yours in such a manner, but the "high and mighty" attitude of most of  your posts in general just kinds of ticks me off. Having your personal opinions about how good the NX80 is( I agree it's a damn good device) doesn;t mean that you can go on around calling users who prefer other handhelds newer than yours, and users who have different needs "pea brain" or "retarded" or "a bunch of babies".

If you can't stand this thread, you can just stop looking into this thread and ignore it. The starter of this thread wanted to know how people pay for all the new Clie purchases, if you are not interested, so be it, don't look in  here.

So i'm not allowed to call the UX ugly? What about fugly? :D Gee... It's just my opinion. It's not like i'm trying to stop them from wasting their money on such a horrible product. :D JUST KIDDING. So UX owners have different opinions. Post'em... Just in the UX forum where I won't see them :D

Umm... Built in Wifi and bluetooth is not outperforming an NX. Just some bells and whistles. There is a difference between performance and convenience. Oh, the 30fps video is due to the substitution of the 1.3 Megapixel camera on the NX. But... I bet you forgot to mention that, right :D

Not all people do not understand the OS 5/6 differences and have a pea brain like you think they do. Some may really need the multi-tasking power of OS6 while surfing on wifi/BT via GPRS, and actually want to migrate OS based on needs instead of "buzz words"

Umm... There are laptops meant for these needs and more. Sony has a laptop line of Vaio's meant for portability. I understand they're expensive but as much as users want to multi-task, they're essentially incorporating the usablity of a laptop into a PDA. They even fit in your pocket and is reasonably larger than a PDA considering how much more you can do on it. The only thing preventing people from buying those latops is the price but isn't what your asking of a PDA a laptop. You might as save up for one as much money as you waste yearly buying a new PDA. I spent $1200 so far for my NX70 and 80V, the Vaio TR series cost $2200. Now, why bother buying another $600 PDA just for O/S 6? Do you see where i'm going with this. The Vaio TR would do more than a Clie would ever due but people still want what a TR offers and will continuously waste money duing so.

No clie will be able to outperform a sony digital camera for the reason that Sony does not want Clie sales to cannibalize their digital camera sales.

This I agree and me seeing that, I have chosen to buy the Cybershot DSC-T1. I still wanted to have some hope tho :D

Once again, you have to look at other user's needs befor calling them "Bunch of Babies" You may not need BT/Wifi integrated, but others will have the need to be able to gain access to memory stick storage while surfing the net or emailing attachments from the memorystick.

Man... I guess a joke is out of the question. Maybe more :D :D :D and ;) ;) ;) will help after I made the "Bunch a babies" remark. Anyway, the reason I made that remark is because all I hear is whinning about BT and Wifi. I can't do this while I do this while listening to this while eating this while seeing this and hearing this while composing this and messaging this and planning this. Man, slow your roll and one thing at a time.

Once again, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Sure the NX80 is a looker, I like the design, which is why I have it, but IMO, the UX is down right sexy and slim, and looks great in a different way compared to the NX80.

Yeah, I know. That's why I gave my opinion on it. But in reality, Clies are like people. The NX is top heavy :D while the UX has the junk in the trunk with it's wide hips. It's all in how you like it. ;)

I didn't really want to reply to this post of yours in such a manner, but the "high and mighty" attitude of most of your posts in general just kinds of ticks me off.

If you can't stand this thread, you can just stop looking into this thread and ignore it. The starter of this thread wanted to know how people pay for all the new Clie purchases, if you are not interested, so be it, don't look in here.

Umm... WARNING JOKE AHEAD - If my posts tick you off, seek counseling. :D The thread asked if we have enough money to buy the newest Clie, not how people pay for it. I try not to be so sadistic or harsh on forums but damn... Some people make its so difficult. :D When I make remarks about users, it's not generally referring to anyone. The one's I refer to are usually the one's that reply seeing as they feel I hurt their feelings. It's like they kinda know who they are and take the time to reply or something. I don't even know anyone here to even crack on them or their character. It's just used in general. I understand that some references like "pea brain" "retarded" and "bunch of babies" may offend the pea brain retarded bunch of babies community but I make them in jest. I put some smiley faces on showing that.

I guess now, people will take anything verbatum. Lighten up.

if you choose to see wifi and BT as bells and whistles, so be it....others view the 1.3mp camera bells and whistles too


Umm... There are laptops meant for these needs and more. Sony has a laptop line of Vaio's meant for portability. I understand they're expensive but as much as users want to multi-task, they're essentially incorporating the usablity of a laptop into a PDA. They even fit in your pocket and is reasonably larger than a PDA considering how much more you can do on it. The only thing preventing people from buying those latops is the price but isn't what your asking of a PDA a laptop. You might as save up for one as much money as you waste yearly buying a new PDA. I spent $1200 so far for my NX70 and 80V, the Vaio TR series cost $2200. Now, why bother buying another $600 PDA just for O/S 6? Do you see where i'm going with this. The Vaio TR would do more than a Clie would ever due but people still want what a TR offers and will continuously waste money duing so.

wow...now you're comparing laptops to pdas.....


This I agree and me seeing that, I have chosen to buy the Cybershot DSC-T1. I still wanted to have some hope tho :D

yup


Man... I guess a joke is out of the question. Maybe more :D :D :D and ;) ;) ;) will help after I made the "Bunch a babies" remark. Anyway, the reason I made that remark is because all I hear is whinning about BT and Wifi. I can't do this while I do this while listening to this while eating this while seeing this and hearing this while composing this and messaging this and planning this. Man, slow your roll and one thing at a time.

whatever...


Yeah, I know. That's why I gave my opinion on it. But in reality, Clies are like people. The NX is top heavy :D while the UX has the junk in the trunk with it's wide hips. It's all in how you like it. ;)

i didn't say the NX looked ugly? haha, top heavy, that's what I like in a lady too :D

well, adding a :D to a sentence doesn't make the way you phrase your posts look more like jokes. If I make a post scolding a particular user, would a :D after the comment make the post any more polite?

anyway the point of my post was to comment on the way you choose to respond to other people's views and the way you comment on them, if you still do not get what i wanted to get across here, so be it...

Now what was I thinking? All we can do with our PDA is keep track of appointments and phone numbers. It's not like people would link it to the internet, play games, music, and movies on it. That would just be crazy :rolleyes:

urmm...if all you wanted to do is to keep track of appointments, get a monochrome basic palm zire? why get a NX80v with a 1.3
MP camera, 200mhz processor, MP3 Player, movieplayer, Netfront preinstalled, wifi capable if you only keep appointments?:rolleyes:

Umm... The NX80 has a 200mhz processor. I guess I was ripped off. Mine only has a 200Hz processor. Does anyone know where I can get the 200mhz NX80 model?

[ricleo]

Lolz...go check out your NX80v box for the CPU info "PXA263 200MHz" get your facts right before commenting...

looks like you really got ripped off with a 200hz PXA263 CPU

[Liqwid]

lol. Damn it. I'm tired of these replying games... Me sleepy

[Liqwid]

That little M threw me off. It's MHz not mhz

[ricleo]

Lolz, go sleep then :) it's still early over here.

[Liqwid]

Hey, can you make a thread where you upload pics of the manual that way I can just refer people there instead of messing with them.

[ricleo]

you can always hyperlink them to the Sony support site and get them to read the online manual over there :)

It'll take too much time to scan save every page of the manual as a jpeg and post time online :p

[Liqwid]

lol. Kewlz!

[ricleo]

lolz, this is becoming like a real time chatroom

hahaha!!!!!

Your microwave runs faster than your palm!!!!

Lol, you mean 200MHz,


M is 1 x 10^6.
Hz is how many rotations per second (or per time unit I think)
