| Product Reviews from Amazon.com (Rating System 1 to 5) |
| Review | Rating | Last Updated | was great
Was great for a little while, but quickly got outdated. Still good for basics. | 5 | Today | good pda
i doubt anyone will even ever read this as sony has pulled out of the market, but this is a really solid pda. i need a new one b/c the screen is messed up from dropping it too many times (i am really hard on it). i have really enjoyed it though. as long as i am replacing it, i want a faster processor. 66 Mhz is a lot faster than the original palms, and faster than most folks need...but i run some medical software on mine that utilizes every ounce of speed. if you are just a regular user, or relatively new to pdas, you won't be disappointed in this one! be sure to get the cradle that comes with it as it is pretty cool. | 5 | Today | Awesome hanheld
Awesome palm pilot, great for almost any thing, games, camera, movies. Definetly worth the money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 5 | Today | Best all around PDA out there
This has been one of the better electronics purschases I've made. Memory is great, full of features (MP3 audio is great), no stupid thumb keyboard. I've thought of upgrading just because, but despite being two years old, no other PDA on the market is as functional as the T-665C. The only drawback - no way to add a WiFi card. COme on SOny! Build it, and they will come! | 5 | Today | awesome PDA/ Entertainment Organizer/ what-have-you
Great buy. I got it for cheap and use it primarily as a MP3 player, and to read news and ebooks. If you plan to do all that, be ready to shell out another $65-70 bucks for a 256MB Memory stick otherwise it doesn't play MP3s. I didn't buy the obscenely expensive MS Pro (white ones) and I use a freely downloadable ripper (CDex) to rip my music CDs to MP3s. You have to make sure that copyright stuff isn't included in your MP3s b/c they won't play. Some weird Sony thing. Build quality is super and its sexy as hell (its a Sony). The bundled audio player is pretty basic though and you can't do anything except turn bass on and off. I have yet to come across a better one, and if I do, I would install it promptly. SonicStage software for your PC is utterly useless, as is the Sony's ATRAC format for song compression (I hope someone from Sony reads this... why? why? why??). Most of the software that comes on the CD are trial versions, but there are plenty of great software (and free too) to download from a bunch of Palm sites. But know that the number of Clie-specific software is much less than Palm (Zire/Tungsten)-specific software. The scroll button in the front of the Clie is too small for anyone to use (as you might have gathered from all other reviews), but Sony makes up for it with the very useful jog dial and back button on the side. I find the screen too slick, so I've put a high quality screen protector (highly recommended... but that's 10 bucks more) and can also comfortably use my finger as a stylus over it sometimes. I've heard people complain of battery life. But that is to be expected of a device so thin and light and having a great color display. If you're going on a long trip listening to music, don't use the Clie to read stuff at the same time and u can squeeze out 6 hours on a full charge (use the Hold button). If you don't use the backlight, the battery life between charges, even while playing MP3s, is very respectable. I would also recommend getting a hard aluminum case (~$25...ouch) if you're a rough user and plan to bump your Clie on different surfaces. Feel free to contact me with any Clie PEG-T665C questions, at ospexy1@yahoo.com Cheers and have a great 2004 | 5 | Today | Could be the Most Beautiful PDA there is!!
I got this unit about 2 months ago at an excellent price ($149.00 new). I purchased it at a navy military Exchange store in Mountain View, Ca. Meaning the price that I got it for was exactly $149 because of the no tax policy. I've owned palm pilots before (Palm m105, Palm m130, then Palm 550) I wanted to go different ways but still get the excellence of Palm OS. So I saw this at the store (and for your info this is regular price at any military place from now on) and I got it. I love this PDA it does everything that you want...personal assitant and entertainment! The look is sleek and matches its weight appropriately. Some tips and add-ons to make it even better than it is: 1. Add Kinoma Player (free) and Producer ($). The quality is 10x better than the provided gMovie. Download cartoon episodes (The Simpsons) to fit 2 entire shows on a 128mb. 2. Get Documents to Go Premium($). You can review your drafts of a very important report rather than bring your bulky notebook computer. Use it like an editor for last minute fixups! Powerpoint is awesome! 3. To fillup some room on Datebook and remember important holidays and learn of some new ones - get Holidates2 ($) 4. Get SplashPhoto - view your pictures from your sony camera memory stick. SplashMoney - "So thats how much money I have." SplashID - get your plethora of info, serial, registration, usernames, passwords, etc organized! 5. Games - the best there is "Warfare Incorporated" The best sound, graphics, challenge there is in a PDA game. (has actual voice overs). Only bad thing is the huge memory it needs...store it in a card. Second place is "Billiards" - just like yahoo pool. Third - "Bejeweled" Fourth - the always popular "DopeWars" 6. Reading up on news and sports? Get avantgo (free). Pictures are a bit cluttered but clear enough and updated very often. 7. Make sure you get your free map from Mapopolis - this helped me a few times during my times in SF. 8. Battery Life (a happier life?) a. Keep brightness level exactly at 50% this gives you almost same level as 100% but saves you 30% on extended battery life. b. Turn off "Beam Receive" in Pref menu. Because if on - it searches for activity in the air every 2 min. c. When outside make sure you turn off the backlight (by holding down the off button) d. You can leave the T665c on the charger overnight, when the charge light goes off, there's only a very small trickle charge being delivered to the battery, whcih is probably helpful in the long run. I really like how my clie looks on the charger...very neat. Hopefully you got the matching cradle. 9. Purchase BugMe and exchange the memopad shortcut button to this handy application. You can now write your own short messages in your own handwriting. 10. To save a few K bits - delete any unneeded soundutility sounds (i keep about 5 of them only). 11. For your address book...get small size quality pictures for each of your collegues and friends and paste it on each of them. Also make a professional buisness card when you need to beam. 12. Finally to complement the beauty of the unit you will need to protect it without deceiving the look. Get the Metal Deluxe Case from InnoPocket that has the exact material finish and dimenstions of the T665c. It is made specifically for this clie with cut outs for volume, jog dial, sync, hold switch, and even memory stick! Check this site out for it: http://store.craytonelectronics.com/metdelcasfor4.html Now the Bad: 1. Battery life is not great when you want to listen to music at the same time when your doing applications. 2. Can't delete some preinstalled software...like gMovie. 3. Not sure how to replace LiOn battery when needed. This is a discontinued item...hopefully my tips will make your clie experience even better! - Jommel | 5 | Today | It's a shame that they are discontinued.
I've own palms ever since they have have been made. This is certainly the best for its time and it would take a lot of improvements to make be buy another. I've bought a palm on avg. every 6 mos. But to the facts. The metal casing is a plus and adds to durability. The buttons are quite small and not really user friendly but thank god for the jog wheel. The screens is not the best but, the imaging is excellent none the less. One feature is the 20 ft range of the IR which makes the Clie remote its most unique feature and lots of fun at friends houses as well as you own especially if the wife keeps hiding the remote. I'm keeping this short due not being redunant. | 4 | Today | An Outstanding PDA For The Money!!!!
I was VERY pleased with my purchase of the Clie T665C. I bought it as a replacement for my Palm IIIxe. I am a consultant who travels Mon-Thu, so my review may concentrate on the travelling business person. Here are some of the highlights: (1) I haven't found the battery life to be a problem. I actually prefer it to my IIIxe, which would EAT up AAA batteries like crazy!! I always had to carry an extra set. With the T665C, I just need to get to an outlet. I can let it charge in the hotel overnight. (2) I use Lotus Notes for e-mail, addresses, to-do's, calendar, and journal. This synchs up great with the T-665C using Lotus EasySync (not included). (3) The audio player is a great accessory. I can copy audio files to the PDA and play them on the airplane, etc. As it has been stated before, you DON'T need a special memory stick, you'll just need to copy the audio files directly into the MSAUDIO directory of the memory stick using MS Import (included). (4) I also very much enjoy the Mobipocket application (included). This application allows me to download news and business from FoxNews, Bloomberg, Newsweek, etc for FREE and read them on the plane as well. (5) The screen, resolution, etc are much more than I imagined. I carry updated pictures of my family and they show up great. I also download short movies taken from my digital camera and can play them as well with the included software. I would make this purchase again in a HEARTBEAT!!! | 5 | Today | low battery
battery run out so soon. i used to have another handheld model that batery charge last up to 15 days. even so i recomend this product, i left my laptop in home and trust my clie to do its job. | 4 | Today | Come on Sony give us Mac users a break!!
I am only giving the Clie T-655C 4 stars because it is not Mac compatable yet. You still have to buy the ...Missing Sync patch to get it to work. So we are having to shell out more to use the PDA. I do feel that it is worth it. I am happy that I can download MP3 files directly for iTunes by dragging them to the disk. I am not sure how that works with a PC. The color on the screen is beatuiful. I have found may uses for my Clie like making list on the go, to playing games. It makes it simple to stay organized with all my to do lists, phone lists and documents I might not other wise have. Plus it is light weight, and easy to fit in your handbag or pocket. The only problem that I had with my at first was the on screen key-board would not pop-up on the letters side of the graffiti pad. That lasted about 2 weeks. I would have to keep soft booting , and then go through the Clie Welcome screens to recalibrate the graffiti pad. Now I am not having a problem with that. It does seem to charge faster in the cradle than with the travel cord. I would defintally recomend this PDA to someone else. Unlike others I have not had a problem with the battery running down too quickley, unless I am playing games on it. Which is naturally to be expected. | 4 | Today |
