Sony press release. Pricey but pretty, the Clie is evolving into something quite interesting. The NR70V begs for a higher resolution camera (it's only 100k pixels) and wireless connectivity (Bluetooth at least).

Treo News

From PDABuzz.com:

Handspring Begins Nationwide Retail Distribution of Treo
Handspring to raise stand-alone Treo price by $50

CompUSA and Best Buy have yet to add the Treo to their web sites. I wouldn't pay $600 for a Treo 180 without service contract... but then again, I wouldn't pay $400 with contact either.
