Is there anyone out there who has experience with both the NR70 and the T675C(in USA:T665C)?
I'm not really planning to use the camera.
How about battery life?
Is weight and size a noticable issue with the NR70?
I love the look of the NR70 but if u guys tell me that the keyboard is hardly used and for the rest it's aboutthe same, i might as well buy the 675C right?
Any help would be great.
Thanx.

I have a T615 - essentially a T665 without MP3 (and slower processor). I have played with the NR series, but never used it extensively.
I guess it's really a personal choice. I have heard several people say that the keyboard is too small to be used effectively, and I've heard that it can get too big and bulky. The universal positive I've heard about the NR-/NX- series is the virtual graffiti. Gives a larger screen for viewing, and if you use a virtual keyboard, it replaces the Graffiti area instead of popping into more screen space like on other Palm OS machines.
Battery life seems similar on both. Essentially, you need to decide between keyboard and virtual Graffiti of the NR vs smaller size of the T665.

My friend has an NR70v, and it has worked great for him. He says that he uses the thumb keyboard every time he needs to write more than a sentence. Size is not much of a problem. It can still fit easily into your pocket, which is all that you really need. The virtual graffiti, as Nick said, is a very nice feature, even though it is not compatible with all applications. Unfortunately, the built-in applications do not support it on the NR, but they do on the NX series. However, he uses mostly third-party replacements for these, and many of them support hi-res+, so the NR is a VERY good choice.

Thanx!
indeed,the virtual graffiti feature interests me, and if the keyboard is actually handy, i think i will buy the nr70,since the nx70is still a bit too costly for me :(

I keep hearing rumors of a T615/665 device with OS5 and virtual Graffiti, but that could just be wishful thinking of many users! ;)
