i wanna sell my UX-50 and buy a RED HOT T|T3.
.3MP cam, KB and WI-FI (UX-50) for bigger screen, a faster CPU, a better compatibility and some bucks (T|T3)..
gonna take it?
I'd not do it. you will definitely regret it. believe me.
the difference int he screen size isn't that big and you will not take advantage of the higher CPU speed that offten to change the unit. it's up to you but you will regret it

I agree with Orol on the screen thing...
and
Faster CPU= faster apps + faster battery drain.
And let me add, If I can play warfare and watch flash animations on my UX50 why do I need a faster CPU? which program will you use it for?

I own both the T3 and UX50, but I kept the UX50 for myself and gave the T3 to my wife as an upgrade from her previous TT.
I prefer the UX even though the T3 have a larger screen, it is quite a hassle to always open up the slider to enjoy the landscape mode. As for UX50, the landscape is always there once you power it up(of course you will need CodeDiver to do the magic for a lot of the apps!).
And also, the UX keyboard. Nowadays, I hardly use the stylus, and I don't have to be bother by Grafitti anymore.
Lastly, and most importantly, WiFi!! I save a lot of money by using WiFi at home and at work, and don't have to rely on the slow Bluetooth/GPRS/Mobile Phone combination to retrieve my emails.
Although, the UX is costly to keep. You will need to spend some money to buy some useful software such as CodeDiver, Fonts4UX etc etc.. But I find that it is worth it and get the job done better than the T3.
These are just my personal opinions.

I agree with the above posts.... I had a Tungsten T and I hated the slider. Of course the T|T did not have virtual graffiti and I only opened to access the graffiti pad (I also used Graffiti Anywhere, a program that lets you write anywhere on the screen to avoid opening the slider, but it had its own issues that still made it more efficient to open the slider for text input)
I feel the capabilites of the UX are much greater.. especially the keyboard, rated by many as the best PDA keyboard currently available!

They are right. It took me two months to decide between a T3 and a UX-50. I bought both, and used both for a couple weeks. I returned the T3. In the store they seemed comparable, but in real life, the UX was far more useful. The biggest things for me were the keyboard, and the wi-fi. Without them, the T3 was much less useful. Sure, the T3 has a couple of attractive features (I miss the real man's stylus), but it can't compare. I even find myself using the built-in camera far more than I though I would.
