For color, IMNSHO the Clie is by far the best Palm OS PDA out there -- I love the high res screen (320 x 320), and I have no regrets on spending the extra money (refurbed Prism's are going for $190, I paid $350 for the T615). The springboard slot, however, is very nice. You can get adapters for Compact Flash, Smart Memory, and Memory Stick. There are three GPS modules. There is a barcode reader. And so on. But, the downside is that I doubt Handspring's future commitment to the Springboard. It looks like Handspring's future is the Treo, and I didn't see them developing anything competitive to the T615. And, I want a traditional PDA, not a PDA/phone combo. I am keeping the Visor Deluxe. I think you'll like your Visor. Tony

Flip top covers are nice (I like the Clie's leather flip top much better than the Visor's removable cover), but I've learned to live with the Visor's removable cover and probably won't buy the flip top cover for it.

Still, it's easy to hold underneath the Visor while you're using it, so it's not a continual source of annoyance for me. Doesn't seem to get in the way when I'm playing Galaxian :) On and on and on and on, and on and on and on goes John.

I might have an older one (PC Card adapter for my older laptop). The buggers at tech support said I have to go buy an entirely new (serial) cradle from them as they won't send me a replacement. I'm gonna try bugging them until they give in. Still, it got my old data in with no problems. This is good.
