My Handheld

While the rest of my website is pretty up to date, my handheld page has lagged behind. I wrote this back in August but it's still pretty accurate so I'm going to post it. The old version is archived but will not be updated.

I currently own a Sony CLIÉ T665C. It is a great handheld and has served me very well. I started off my palm life early in the summer of 2002 (I think) with a Palm III. I pretty quickly came into the possession of a Palm V, which was better but not enough. In the fall, all of my friends at school started getting better palms and I was ready to move on. I had been shopping all summer and had thought about almost every Palm in existence. I settled on the T665C because it was small, color, hi-res, could play MP3s, and was not too expensive. So, since December I've had my CLIÉ. Of course, almost as soon as I bought it, I started shopping for it's successor. Many of us palm owners spend way too much time drooling over new Palms and generally don't buy for a couple of generations.

As for what will actually be the successor, it's looking like the T|3 at this point. My next handheld must have some kind of wireless and should have Hi-Res+. The Helix/Zodiac looks pretty sweet too, but I dunno, it doesn't seem like the handheld for me.
