Okay!!!
Just recently I resolved myself to purchasing a Sony Clie' N760c for more memory and mp.3 playing capability!!!
But get this...
I CAN'T FIND A N760c or at LEAST an N710c (I will compromise :-) for a decent price!!!
And by decent price I mean that the fairly new Sony T-665c, which has 8 more MegaBytes internal memory for a total of 16, enhanced I.R. port, BEAUTIFUL screen, and mp3 playing capability.....COST LESS THAN the PEG N710c OR the PEG N760c!!!!! That's crazy!!! (I'm frustrated) And sometimes cost THE SAME AS the N710c/760c (That's crazy too!!)
This knowledge came when looking up all three handhelds at
www.bizrate.com
www.zdnet.com
and comparing all three with each other in my browser by putting in there respective names (See for yourself!!!)
Now I'm no stranger to marketing techniques (Like how on ZDnet, they have NO picture of the Palm IIIc like they do of all the other handhelds, presumably because the handheld's screen is very beautiful despite low-res, and very CHEAP (I got mine from Buydig.com when it was $119 which was a GREAT deal because the 515 and the m130 just could not compare) (Unless you REALLy wanted a smaller size and expandble memory, which at the time I didn't)
I think Sony is doing the same thing in a way, or at least it's vendors, in forcing you to but the new T-Series.
I geuss by now you're wondering what's the big deal? The T series model IS better except for one thing which is important to me.....
THE SCROLL BUTTON!!!!!
I need a REAL scroll button to play games!!!!!!
What I'm asking is can any of you PLEASE point me to a retailer that sells the N760c or even the the N710c, for a price that is (if you haven't checked out the links) below $323 (Which is the lowest price for a brand new T-665c)
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated to the highest sphere, to the utmost!!!!!
I simply want a handheld for specific purposes (Play games, mp3's, school work) that I can use for all of them.
Thank you also for reading my tirade against non-sensical shopping choices!!! LOL!!!
