According to the Dell Home Office website the Sony Clie PEG-S320 is IN STOCK.

Don't forget to combine this with the $25 off $150 coupon and up to 20% off and order through eBates.com to save another 2%.

Here's my fuzzy math, the numbers below may not be 100% accurate:

$169.99 Sony Clie from Dell
-5% off PDA's
-$25 off $150 coupon
-2% eBates.com
-free shipping
==========================
$133.76

Why didn't you get this for $119 last week from your local Circuit City after $50 rebate? Although there's a rebate involved, it was a lot easier to pick up instead of hassling with shipping and coupons.

Hey guys, I ordered one at the beginning of the month too, I first got ship date: 12/10/01. That seemed pretty good, but on Dec 10 it had changed to 01/02/02!!!!!! Unacceptable, I called Dell 3 times, those morons are completly disorganised. One rep told me it was in stock, but they just didn't know where as they have tons of warehouses. They don't even know in which warehouse it's in stock, the order just first goes to the first warehouse, then the second, etc...and according to the rep it can take days for an order to be transfered. I yelled a little bit and complained a whole lot, and finally the guy said "let me check if I can speed things up"...and my Clie got shipped on that same day!!!!! just call them, wait 40 minutes on hold, and don't hang up until the guy agrees to ship it to you ASAP.

Good Luck!!

The Sony Clie S320 is now $128 shipped:

$170
- $17 (10% off all PDA's)
- $25 ($25 off $150 coupon)
--------------------------------------
= $128 shipped (free shipping, no minimum)

Check out Sony's Mylo wireless service too. $40/month gives you unlimited usage within your designated service area. You also get a GoAmerica sled and a Sierra Wireless AirCard 300 for $99 after $100 MIR, if you sign up for 12 months service (add $25 activation fee as well). So it's (12 * $40) + $25 + $99 = ~$600 for a year of unlimited wireless service with hardware included. Not too bad.

There's also an audio adaptor you can plug into the S320 to turn it into an MP3 player. Unfortunately, it's out of stock at Dell right now.

Well, here's my 2 cents comparing the S320 to the S300:

Disadvantages: 8MB memory stick not included; no cradle (you get a USB Hotsync cable instead).

Advantages: Comes with 8MB internal memory vs. 2MB on the S300; slightly faster processor (33MHz vs. 20MHz); PalmOS 4.0.5 instead of 3.5.2 on the S300; allows USB Hotsync on Windows XP (the USB switcher program used by the S300 doesn't work with Windows XP); first Clie to work with Sony's Mylo wireless service.

Not sure what you are talking about!!!


I have the S300, it has 8mb internal memory but does have the palm 3.5 OS. And yes it did come with the memory stick. To bad it sticks up out of the clie. However my sister has the 610 and in that one the memory stick goes all the way down. Not sure about the processor speed.

BTW love the clie. I have used a palm2, compaq ipaq, and the clie. I found the clie to be the best. Wonderfull device.
