Good review, but no info we haven't already seen.

Sounds good, but I'm holding off to hear what the PEG-TG50 has before upgrading. From everything that I can find out about it, it appears to be Sony's answer to the Tungsten | T with a small form factor, OS5 and a keyboard instead of Graffiti area. What remains to be seen if it is using a version of Graffiti 2 that allows graffiti to be done on the screen.

Its Aussie dollars :P. GST is the australian sales tax, the conversion rate is about US$.59=AU$1. We already have the SJ33 in our stores (but its as thick as the NZ if anyone noticed). Although equiv to US$325, it will be cheaper cause we have an extra 10% GST and our electronics are ridicuously overpriced (an NX70v being equiv to US$790)

Also graffiti 2 does not work on the screen yet (its essentially graffiti without all single strokes)

The price in the article is in singapore $, not australian. Singapore also has GST, as do many countries. The price in australia is $699.

in american dollars that is $413. OW!!!!!
I'm soon travelling to Australia, perhaps via Hong Kong.
Would the Hong Kong version be exactly the same, or would the grafiti area be smaller like the jap one? It is for sale there now right? Hopefully a little cheaper?
Thanks
