I'm having a hard time deciding whether I should keep my Ipaq 3955 or cave in and get the NZ70. The thing I love about my ipaq is using my Sprint CF card for very fast internet browsing. However, I also have the 5350 vison phone and hear that since it has a serial cable, you can connect it to the NZ70 to get on the internet. I also have a 256 mb flash card that was only $60.

What I like better about the NZ70V is the screen. The pictures on there look perfect..you cannot even notice pixilation on it. I also like the keyboard. When I put the microkeyboard on my ipaq, it makes the thing way too big. Of course, I also like the camera. I was upset, however, to learn that you cannot take secret pictures. Any advice would be helpful. by the way, when I actually saw this thing, it was big, but not THAT big.

You can take secret pictures, it's just hard to be as subtle as it was with the NX70V. Just remember to turn the flash off!

Given that you have an IPAQ 3955, with a CF sleeve...the thickness shoudln't bother you that much...I had a 3955 with the PCMCIA sleeve and battery - and the NZ90 is lighter, and in my opinion much more functional.

As for the fast connection to the internet - nothing is out yet that will let you do it as easily...unless you trade your 5350 vision phone in for a bluetooth phone...at that point, you're back in business.

www.thesupplynet.com didn't have a cable for your phone when I just checked...but it's possible they have it listed differently than 5350...any cable that worked for the T, NR, or NX series will work for your NZ series (thanks Sony!).

I don't miss my iPaq at all, except when on road trips...then the ability to carry a bunch of maps for Mapoplis was extremely nice. Aside from that...my T|T has been a better device, and the NZ that is supposed to arrive tomorrow will be bliss!
