  • Sony Clie PEG-S320 Electronic wonder

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 21, 2002
    Pros: Low cost, very portable
    Cons: none that I can think of

    Summary: For the longest time I have always resisted the temptation to run out and buy one of the new fangled organizers. I was happy to use my leather bound organizer that was given to me as a gift several years ago after I started my job. I needed something to ... read more

  • The best sub-$250 PDA around! (S360)

    Not Yet Rated by the Epinions community
    Nov 5, 2005
    Pros: Memory (16MB), Performance, screen size and display clarity, jog dial button, rechargeable battery
    Cons: None compared to other similarly priced PDA's, hard case would have been nice to have

    Summary: **Please note: My review is for my Clie S360 and not the S320** I bought the Sony Clie S360 after many hours of research - both online and at BestBuy (actually trying out various features) and this is by far the best sub-$250 PDA around. In ... read more

  • Best PDA for $300 CAN or less category

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 11, 2004
    Pros: Memory Expansion, Palm OS 4.0, Jog Dialer
    Cons: Flimsy leather covering and no cradle included.

    Summary: I had been researching PDA's in the price range of $300 or less (Canadian). This is by far the best bang for your buck and probably the smartest purchase you'll ever make. If you want a PDA that can do all the fancy things such as remote ... read more

  • Clie Rules

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 9, 2002
    Pros: Stylish most value for your money
    Cons: hard to find parts for and needs a little more memory.

    Summary: The clie is the best value for all around needs and is great for use with the average person. For the price you get a stylish body 8mb memory rechargable battery and tons of use for hours of entertaiment. With its sleek silver body and its thine compact ... read more

  • a few thoughts

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Sep 30, 2002
    Pros: there is a backlight (contrary to one review!)
    Cons: Mine is having weird freezing issues recently

    Summary: Just wanted to say there is a backlight on the PEG-S320 though it took me awhile to find it. Either press the power button (while Clie already on) until the light comes on then release. Or drag your stylus vertically up over the whole screen. repeat ... read more

  • A Good Budget PDA

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Sep 3, 2002
    Pros: Stylish, Simple Menu, Stable OS, Ease of use
    Cons: Low resolution display

    Summary: The Sony CLIE S320 is a decent and simple PDA. The purpose of the PDA is straightforward in that its use is mostly for scheduling and such. Although Sony coins it as an entertainment device, the low quality photo viewer and video playback is hardly ... read more

  • Excellent value for the money!… but now obsolete.

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 8, 2002
    Pros: Rechargeable Battery, nice design, Sony style and quality
    Cons: Not color, discontinued

    Summary: [Note- I previously said the unit does not have backlight. I was wrong as I recently discovered the feature is accessed by holding the power button for 2 seconds.] I love it. This is my first PDA and Sony has won a loyal customer. ... read more

  • This is a great affordable PDA!

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 22, 2002
    Pros: Thin, fast, expandable memory/slot, looks great!
    Cons: no cradle included.

    Summary: I was looking into a PDA because I'm into gadgets and I needed some kind of organizer for my new job. The ordinary paper kind can actually get expensive over time so I felt that a PDA was the best choice. PALM OR POCKET PC? I ... read more

  • Too many synching problems with Outlook 2000

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 12, 2002
    Pros: Hardware is fine
    Cons: Synching with Outlook 2000 under Windows 2000 was a big problem

    Summary: The hardware is fine and the Palm OS v4 is a standard. However, this Clie comes with Intellisync Lite v4.0 software that has been a big problem for me. At first, I synched this PDA with the PALM desktop PIM software under Windows 98 and it went fine. All ... read more

  • My first PDA - the Clie peg-s320 was a good choice

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Feb 8, 2002
    Pros: Low cost & internal battery
    Cons: Screen is a little shady

    Summary: The device has been used for about a month and a half. I finally broke down to the PDA temptation. I was worried that I would rarely carry it with me away from home, but it turns out it is now just like bringing my wallet or keys. ... read more

  • My Favorite PDA so far.

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 18, 2002
    Pros: Jog Dial, Palm OS, Video and Picture Programs, Battery,
    Cons: Black & White Screen

    Summary: I have owned a Palm IIIe, 2 Handspring Visors, and now I own the Sony Clie S320. I use to sell PDA's at Best Buy as a PDA Specialist, and this is one of my favorite devices running the Palm OS Platform. Some of my favorite functions on it are the Jog ... read more

  • The most bang for the buck

    Jan 16, 2002
    Pros: Low price, Jog Dial, memory stick expansion slot.
    Cons: Getting a little old.

    Summary: If you ever looked for a PDA but never had one before, you have two choices: the cheaper choice is to buy something really expensive, be mad at yourself for such a money waste and swear that you never buy another PDA. Or you can go with one of the ... read more

  • CLIE PEG-S320.... there's no other way

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 15, 2002
    Pros: Small, easy to carry, large storage file, fast
    Cons: Fragile

    Summary: Comparable PDAs from Palm and Handspring don't include flash memory, so permanent OS upgrades and fixes aren't possible. We prefer Sony's approach, which makes updates immune to deletion. For the gadget buff, Sony currently has a camera available for the ... read more

  • Palm, Handspring, Handera and then there's Sony

    Dec 30, 2001
    Pros: Speedy, expansion, affordable, high quality screen
    Cons: Memory Stick can only use memory cards right now

    Summary: The Sony PEG-S320 it an update to the not so popular PEG-300 of last year. Using the proven Palm OS, the Clie features a revolutionary design, a 320 by 320 pixel screen (compared to 160 by 160 of standard palms), offering quadruple resolution (it seems ... read more

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 21, 2001
    Pros: Gorgeous design/appearance, high quality build, innovative features, low price
    Cons: Oddly named. Does it rhyme with "me"?

    Summary: I've always been a great fan of Sony, a very innovative company that always pushes the hi-tech envelope. As a Palm OS devotee, I was particularly elated when they elected to enter the PDA market two years ago and introduced their first Clie Palm-based ... read more

    Dec 20, 2001
    Pros: Inexpensive and very functional
    Cons: Display can be difficult to read in bright sunlight.

    Summary: I purchased my first PDA about two weeks ago. I went into one of those electronics superstores looking for something that I could store business phone numbers and addresses and the like. I zeroed in on the Sony Clie PEG-S320. The first ... read more

    Pros: I love it!
    Cons: I HATE it!!!

    Summary: Yep! I love this thing all right. It keeps me on time, organized, and integrates with my computer calendar/schedule. By the way...NEVER, NEVER, EVER, NEVER buy any type of PDA unless it has a back light. These things are ... read more

    Pros: Fast, Palm OS 4.0, great design, great price
    Cons: No cradle, no cover for the memory stick slot

    Summary: Basically, this Clie has a fast processor, great screen, and the latest Palm OS. Covers more than just the basics in a greyscale PDA. But, you can read about all the technical details elsewhere. If you're shopping for a Palm PDA, the ... read more
