NR 70v / T665

[themailbox]

Hi all, can i get ur opinions. I'm trying to decide between the 665 and NR70V.Any advice?
Is the battery life of teh NR70 much better than the 665? Also, is it
cumbersome to swivel just to input some quick notes?
Thanks!

the nr has a bigger screen, which is nice. plus the camera is real trick, too. as far as performance goes, they are both 66mhz w/16bit color depth, i believe.

the t665 is my choice PDA, it costs right and has the ability to install a camera to the mem. stick interface. i think, tho that comparing these two are like comparing a toyota to a lexus. same great maker, two different qualities. toyota is a better buy with great quality, but the 'lexus' of the Sonys is a real wow factor when u pull that puppy out in front of ur friends.

here is a direct comparison chart from sony site. (http://www.sonystyle.com/home/chart.jsp?chartid=2&button=2&productid=51069&hierc=9684x9744x9748) This will really be able to tell you the most, at a non-biased viewpoint, other than it is sony wanting u to buy sony.

cheers,

Get the T665, you wont regret it ;) . And dont worry abt the batt life that everyone's complaining about. You can slide the brightness to 20%(or even to 0% as I did) and still enjoy the wonderful screen while extending batt life to 2-3 days. amazing.

I own both. Or rather, I own a T615 and I bought an NR70V for my daughter.

For college students who want to use the Clie as a substitute for a laptop computer, the N series is the best bet -- bigger screen makes the text much more readable. It also has a small keyboard, although an external keyboard is in the works. The camera is a gimmick and is nearly useless. Better to buy a separate Sony camera and shuttle the pictures via Memory Stick.

Personally, I like the T series' small size. It fits in my shirt pocket. If I turn off Beam Receive and I turn down the backlight, the battery life runs up to a few hours.

In either case, buy the biggest Memory Stick you can afford (the third party memory sticks are cheaper than Sony's). Those Sony color graphics result in larger application size, and 16MB doesn't last long.
