(Well, loaned one from a Hong Kong subsidiary of Sony) Jealous? Yeah ... it is a good machine but I prefer the 665 mainly because I hate keyboards and the flap.

I think it would be very inconvenient to have the cover sticking up another couple inches when using it... __________________ :: quiller :: equiller.com majestiqdesign.net

Hey, why not give us an unbiased review of the unit? I'd love to know how everything is and how good the keyboard is. I've never been a fan of Graffiti, and I'd rather have a keyboard that is functional and works.
