Buying a palm, need to decide wich one to get

[yomega]

I'm in the market for a PDA, my price range is about $150-$215. I am currently considering either the Sony Clie' PEG-S360 or the PEG-T415.

The reviews of the T415 say that the screen is kinda dim, I went to Best Buy to play with them, but the lighting at BB made it difficult to tell how good the screen is.
so, does anyone here have any experience with either of these and could give me an opinion?
I can get the S360 for $170 shipped and I can get the T415 for about $215.

Thanks for your help.

i'd get the t415, i personnaly love the screen, it has better contrast then the greenish palm screen. other than that, look into the t615, that one's pretty much a t415 with a color screen. only drawback to the sony t-series is that there's still no stowaway keyboard yet

Thanks, I wish I could afford the T615, but I its a little too far out of my price range.

Any one else have a suggestion?

I personally would avoid a Clie. Why pay the price premium for the name "Sony" in return for some poor support and delay upgrade? Take 710 as an example: Windows XP user has to pay an extra $50 for an OS upgrade to make it compatible with Windows XP (plus more color display). Either you see that as an enhancement or compatiblility upgrade, it seems ridiculous to me.

The current Visor Pro and Edge looks pretty good to me for that price range, you might want to consider that.

Well now it looks like the Visor Edge is another valid option.

I guess I'll just go and get my three sided coin......

I bought my gf the sony 360 for $127 from dell a few months ago and she loves it. It's fast, screen is good and the best thing is that memory stick prices are fairly reasonable.

Ever think about getting a pocketpc? Some of the older PPC2K ones can be found in your range.
