Sony Clié PEG-UX50 ... Bluetooth, 802.11b / The PEG-UX50 Personal Entertainment Communicator features dual Wireless integration in a compact and lightweight design. Powered by Palm OS 5, the UX50 is powerful, portable, and easy to use!

With both 802.11b WiFi and Bluetooth built-in, the UX50 offers two methods of wireless communication for maximum flexibility. Connect to a wireless LAN network using 802.11b WiFi, and you can check e-mail, access the Internet, or HotSync with a PC on the network wirelessly. By pairing the UX50 with other Bluetooth enabled devices you can transfer data between CLIE handhelds, HotSync with a PC, or connect to the Internet via cell phone. Built-in digital camera with 3x digital zoom provides 310K effective pixel resolution.

The built-in 310, 000 pixel digital camera supports up to VGA (640x480) resolution, and is perfect for taking quick snapshots and transmitting over one of the wireless connections. You can also record and play back video (MPEG4, 30 fps, 160x112)!

The new wide-screen design features a high-resolution 480x320 display. The wider display allows more web pages to be readable, improving your Internet experience. The screen lifts to expose the keyboard, or swivels to hide the keyboard and use as a touch screen. Plus, more room is available for the built in keyboard, allowing for more space between each key.

The UX50 also features Dedicated Internal Media Memory (29 MB) for storing multimedia content. The Automatic Data Back-up feature helps protect your information by moving data in RAM memory to non-volatile memory when a low battery state is detected.

 ... extended battery for the UX50 but unfortunately they did not make enough for each of the PDA units they produced. This means that they sell for ridiculous prices on eBay as every UX50 owner wants one - the cheapest I have seen one available for is $120 USD from Hong Kong (non-Sony). My other beef with the UX50 is, surprisingly, the screen. The UX50 only supports landscape display mode meaning that the screen only shows 420 pixels across and 320 pixels down and herein lies a big problem - most Palm OS PDA software is d...more

Crowned Review Sony Clié PEG-UX50: One of the coolest devices ever made? (1318 words)

I have had my UX50 for three years now and have used it non-stop since it's arrival from the US. The fact that this PDA packs in a very bright 480 x 320 pixel screen, a comfortable, easy to use keyboard, a video camera, bluetooth and 11b wireless networking into a unit that is far smaller than a Nintendo DS is a testimony to quality Japanese engineering. And they did not stop there; the TFT display rotates 180 degrees and folds flat against the keyboard for those who prefer to carry out data entry using the tiny, retractable stylus which nestles under the keyboard. But there is more. If the supplied 104MB RAM (split between video, photos, ...  Read the complete review
