Ok, now to the NX FAQ:
I just got a new NX!! Ah!!:
Visit this thread for NX Newbies: http://www.cliesource.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18812
How do I use my NX's Flash Player and why can't I view flash sites in NetFront?:
The NX Flash Player is a stand alone player, NetFront does not support Flash. This site http://twz.cnh-online.net/uziflash.shtml has information on how to download and play Flash files. Note that you must have alot of free space to play Flash files (the amount of space the flash file you are playing is) and you can only play Flash 5 and below.
How do i connect my NX to the internet?:
Sony makes a WiFi card that uses the NX CF slot. Visit the Wireless forum.
Can I get a WiFi sniffer?
No, the only WiFi snffers support PalmOS 5.2. The NX runs on 5.0
I see NX Clie's with skins and backgrounds, how do I do that?:
I suggest ZLauncher (www.zztechs.com) The Clie Launcher forum has more suggestions for add-on launchers.
How do I increase memory space in my CLIE?
1) Jackflash (http://www.cliesource.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25149)
2) Memory Stick
There are different types of memory sticks:
Purple- (Sony, Lexar and SAndisk)- These are regular memory sticks
White- MagicGate copyright protection for ATRAC3 music
Pro- Works in the NX73/80, will work on NX60/70 with drivers ftp://ftp.ita.sel.sony.com/ccpg/clie/MSPRONX_ENUS.PRC
Duo- "mini" memory sticks, as far as I know, they work with the proper adapter
3) Compact Flash (CF) type II
For NX60/70- You need drivers, this thread says all! http://www.cliesource.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=24712
For NX73/80- There is limited CF support, visiting the thread above will provide greater information.
How do I change Virtual Grafitti (VG) skins?

Quote from mathwhiz99atucb:
"Get a backup program. Trust me on this one, MS Backup is not sufficient. I personally recommend BackupBuddy. There is nothing worse than having your Clié die on you when you are hours away from your PC. Worse yet, what if your PC and Clié decide to conspire against you and die at the same time? For more information about backup programs and their strengths and weaknesses, see this thread (http://www.cliesource.com/forums/sh...&threadid=17891)"
Can I surf the internet through my cradle/cable?
Yes you can. Softick PPP is a windows driver that allows internet connection through your hotsync cradle/cable http://www.softick.com/ppp/
Can I use my NX camera as a webcam?
No not really. CliePet's softeware (http://www.aibohack.com/clie/index.html#GENERAL) is probably the closest answer to a spycam.
Can I play ogg files on my CLIE?:
Yes you can, thanks to CliePet's MCA software see this thread: http://www.cliesource.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=49622&highlight=mca2
You also need either Pockettunes or Aeroplayer

Well, I got to go load up my new computer and transfer data from old to new. This FAQ is far from complete and feel free to post additional FAQ questions, I will add them.
