hypachris Member Join Date: Mar 2003 Posts: 57	SJ22 is different than the SJ30 Some are saying that the SJ22 is the same thing as the SJ30, but after reading some reviews, this is not correct.. Besides the new price and no Docs to Go on SJ22, it also has a better screen than SJ30. -Taken from http://www.pdabuyersguide.com/feature/sony_SJ22.htm The screen is an excellent backlit hi-res 320 x 320 pixel, 65,000 color TFT screen and offers sharp images, text and icons. Compared to the SJ30, the SJ22's screen is a little bit brighter and doesn't have the SJ30's strong blue cast— a small but welcome improvement. Therefore, Sony did enhance the screen in SJ22.....just to clear this up, it's not exactly the same PDA as the SJ30

That all depends on the lighting conditions.

Unregistered Guest Posts: n/a	sj22 or sj30 Since they seem to have most of the same features, but you probably want Documents to go, doesn't that mean that the price reduction for the 22 pretty much disappears? If so, is there any reason to get the 22 instead of the 30?

I disagree. The SJ33 unit I saw at circuit city had the exact same screen as my SJ30.

Well, I personally like the case color of SJ22 better.

Unregistered Guest Posts: n/a	Obviously a matter of taste. I haven't seen it in person, but the black SJ 30 looks pretty cool.
