Sony Clie PEG-NX60 (Silver) Handheld Review

Sony Clie PEG-NX60 (Silver) Handheld
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The NX60 is Sony's first Palm OS5 handheld. The only differences between this and the NX70 is the lack of a built in camera. The NX60 retails for [distinctively] less though, so this is the handheld to choose if you don't need the camera.
With a 200 MHz strong arm processor from Intel this is the most powerful Palm OS PDA ever made and the NX60 is loaded with multimedia software to show that power off. For the first time Sony has included a powerful Movie Player capable of MPEG 1 and MPEG 4 playback. They have also improved the MP3 player from previous models. This version lets you manage your playlists and gives you several levels of bass boost.
Another new feature is the CF slot on the back. This is used with the optional WiFi card from Sony and will allow you to surf the web with any compatible wireless network. The new OS5 web browser is easy to use and very fast. Sony has also added a voice recording ability to the NX60 for taking voice notes anywhere.
The NX60 also has all the great features from the old NR series including the best PDA screen on any handheld. Sony's High res TFT 320 X 480 pixels color screen is sharp and vivid. It has a virtual grafiti area that can be lowered so programs, pictures, and movies can be viewed full screen.
It also includes a polyphonic speaker and alarm, AV universal remote, built in thumb keyboard, a magnesium casing that has better grip than the NR series, and lots of great software including Documents to Go 5.
I've used Pocket PC and Palm devices and this is by far my favorite handheld. Sony has taken everything that was great about the NR series and added a lot more without raising the price from the NR series.
The only downside to the NX60 is the large size, but its still very small for something you can use in place of a laptop for most uses. The screen also flips so you can use it like a regular PDA if you don't need the keyboard.
In my opinion you can't by a better PDA than one of the NX series from Sony.

Compaq H3835 iPAQ Color Pocket PC Review

Compaq H3835 iPAQ Color Pocket PC
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been using an iPAQ 3635 (32MB RAM/ 16MB ROM) for almost a year and just upgraded to the new 3835 model a few days ago (my old 3635 developed a defect and I was given full credit towards a replacement).
While the 3835 is basically a good evolutionary upgrade from the 3635, there is at least one "gotcha" that Compaq does not go out of their way to point out: Compaq changed the Power/Data interface from once model to the other. On the 31xx, 36xx and new 37xx iPAQ models, the power interface and the data interface are separate. On the 38xx series, Compaq chose to combine the two interfaces into a single, slightly larger (and thus incompatible), combined power/data interface. This means that you won't be able to use some accessories you purchased for your older model with the new 38xx series, such as that the:
- Targus Stowaway foldable keyboard
- the 31xx, 36xx and 37xx "Universal" or Serial Sync cradles
- the 31xx, 36xx and 37xx sync cables.
You can use the your old AC Adapter and your car / airplace power cables if you have the interface converter adapter.
If you have a big investment in these power- and/or sync-related accessories, give some consideration to purchasing a 37xx model rather than a 38xx servies model.
There are some differences between the 38xx and 36xx (and new 37xx) series, but I have not used my 3835 long enough to notice a huge difference in performance. The 38xx has
- Double the RAM and ROM of the 36xx (this is good if you were finding 32MB RAM to be too confining)
- An integrated SD slot for 64/128MB memory cards without having to use a CF Card expansion pack (a truely useful new feature)
- Pocket PC 2002 vs Pocket PC original (some additional, applications, functionality and ease-of-use)
- a 64K color screen vs. a 4096 color screen (the difference not so obvious so far)
- 1400mAh battery versus a 950mAh battery (but the rated battery life remains 10 hours)
- A different task manager (which at first blush appears a bit less easy to use .. but that's probably just me)
- Some additional software bundled by Compaq, including IBM ViaVoice (voice commands) and iPresenter PowerPoint (for converting and displaying PowerPoint presentations - quite useful for me).
There other differences, but it's best to go to Compaq's website and print out the QuickSpecs to see for yourself.
All-in-all, I'm not sure if upgrading from a 36xx to a 38xx is really worth it if you have to pay full for a new 38xx; but if you only have to pay the price delta between the two, and you don't mind not being able to use (for now) productivity-increasing accessories such as the Targus Stowaway foldable keyboard, it was certainly worth to me.
