Trash Registered User Join Date: Mar 2002 Posts: 20	Vibrating alert Sorry to start a new thread for such a basic question but does anyone know if the UXs have vibrating alerts... This might sound trivial but it is atually a deal breaker for me since I have lots of alarms going off to remind me to take blood pressure tablets (and readings) at various times during the day - I like these alarms to be discrete so... I know the original Sony Clies did not support vibrates but they may have caught up since... Anyone have any info please? Apart from that the UX looks like an ideal device for my pattern of usage. I tend to use my TT for email, sending and reading text messages and the occasional (urgent) bit of web browsing so having a Keyboard device which works well via Bluetooth with my Sony Ericsson Mobile will be great. In fact the two together reminds me of the mobile companion device that siemens came up with for their mobiles a few years back (anyone remember that)?

I have not seen a mention of it on the website though, so I imagine we are out of luck. __________________ Ocell.Blog: Organisms Meet Machinery Ocell.Photo

I just tried to figure that out by visiting SonyStyle.com, but couldn't decipher...

Although you can prob. get a great deal on the t665 right now.

cjones One! Ah Ah Ahhh! Two! ... Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Suffolk, VA Posts: 438	All cell phones I've ever had had a vibrating function. I coulnd't see having one that didn't. My phone is the Motorola v.70.... and it's still relatively new. What else are you supposed to do with your phone when you go into a movie? -chris __________________ /dev/earth is 98% full.

I have to admit that I love having a vibrate and a silent option on my T720... __________________ Handheld History: Palm IIIx -> HP Jornada 545 -> Palm IIIc -> Casio EM500 -> Clie NR70 -> Clie TJ27
