A Must have item for gadget boys and serious users alike

The sheer beauty of the clie is impressive. Sleek, silver and powerful. Now the most impressive PDA on the block has an outstanding peripheral to help make the most of it. Slotting neatly into the memory card slot it makes a subtle, yet somehow aggressively dominant aesthetic statement.
The rotating head allows photos to be taken from any angle and makes it easy to get that all important and always difficult self portrait. The cost is very reasonable. It is affordable to anybody who can actually afford the PDA itself. The high res photos produced can be saved on the card of the camera which lets you save all important local space for the important matters of downloaded palm pool etc.
If this doesn't give you satisfacdtion then you should give your clie to someone who deserves it!

Best Clie Ever

This is the one we've all been waiting for - small & light form factor, very nice screen, good battery life (!), Wi-Fi AND Bluetooth (one up on the Yanks at last!), this thing is great. I enjoyed my previous Clie, a 760C which was fine but a bit limited.
The TH55 is quicker, can play games in FULL screen (depending on the game, some are 320 x 320, some are 320 x 480 and some are 480 x 320 which is great). I browse the internet and hotsync etc over Wi-Fi at home which is a bit of a slower experience than using a laptop, but it's so cool that i can. I can also browse the internet anywhere else (at work, as a passenger in a car, in the middle of a forest) using bluetooth and my phone. It's easy and it works, and is about as fast as a 56k dial-up.
I absolutely LOVE to watch films on it too, using the program mmplayer i can watch my DVDs that i re-encode on the computer, put them on a memory stick, and i'm away. Very, very cool indeed.
I almost forget that it's also an MP3 player, has the best diary-management stuff of any machine and takes photos.....and still leaves me with battery to spare at the end of the day.
My next step is to get a GPS attachment (over bluetooth of course) for use as a Sat-Nav system for the car.
This is not just the best Clie ever, it's the best handheld machine yet made.

One criticism though, is i'm waiting for someone to come up with a way to use the machine in landscape mode (480 x 320) instead of the normal portrait mode for using in web-browsing etc, which would make this even better.

It's just not as good as my old Psion Revo

The choice is Palm or Windows. And if you go Palm then from what I've seen the TJ35 is probably one of the best. But it's just not as reliable or easy to use or has as much included software as the late lamented Revo.

The cover snapped on mine; if you're going to use it regularly, you'll need another case and at least one memory stick. That adds about £50 to the purchase price, so don't kid yourself it's inexpensive.

The scroll wheel works well, the screen is clear and hi res. The included Picsel Viewer and MP3 player are both great.. but I still miss my broken Revo.

Nice idea but too flimsy

This charger maybe used with a Clié PEG-TH55 as well as other Clié models. A three wire ribbon cable rewinds into the large cigarette-lighter plug when the retract button is pressed and can be pulled out when it is needed. The cable is about 0.9m long. Unfortunately the ribbon cable is far too flimsy and can't take any rough handling. I put it in my glove box in the retracted state but the cable broke off within the first few days. I would recommend buying a standard non-retractable charger with proper cable strain relief.

T675

I have used one of the original USR palm pilot pdas for a lot of years. Just before christmas 2002 I purchased a clie. The screen is excellent, the software bundle is very good with some good apps on top of the standard Palm. I use it extensivley for work and find the mp3 player excellent on train journeys though it does hammer the battery life. From a business perspective I use it for both word and PDf documentation and have found it fine except difficulty in displaying embedded graphics in word.

The downsides are :-

propriety expansion and I have been unable to find a suitable keyboard (I am not keen on the mini)

However I would recommend purchase to business users who do not need the camera et al that other cles have. (I do use the photo stand app with pictures from a canon a40 and they are fine).
