I'm 90% sure it won't be a PDA. That ship has sailed.

I'm also 90% sure it will be a portable media player, like the Archos.
There was some seriously cool stuff at the cebit this year in terms of hi-def portable video players (And recorders!!), and I suspect that is the path they're taking.

The poor LD's gonna get shot to pieces if half the stuff from cebit makes it to market...

This thread is over a year old. Sony first announced their leave of the non-Japanese market about halfway through 2004. :)

That means that this thread started just before any of us knew that Sony was going to be dropping the Clie line..
