$220 is the price of seagate 5GB MD.
For 4gb, JANDR has the hitachi retail version for $175 only. (Not stripped from MUVO2).

Ed,
You mentioned a a mouse when talking about bluetooth. Are you somehow using a mouse with your PDA?
I'm still torn between the 4700 and the dell. I keep seeing myself using HP to watch movies in landscape mode against that dark case.
But, I will most likely be using either with a GPRS CF card and am concerned about the added length to an already long 4700.
But you can't beat the price....
Luckily the Dell doesn't have PI in the ROM, so I would still have control over updating it with patches.
Then, neither have a camera, which is great!
Decisions .... decisions.....

Think Outside has a small portable one designed specifically for Bluetooth Pocket PCs. I'm trying it out now. Look for a review at some point when I can find the time.

I had much higher expectations for this device, I thought it would be the ultimate PDA. It still looks to be an incredibly good device but it's kinda nice to still be glad I got the x30 high a few weeks ago

Neat piece.
That is a nice looking handheld, and the specs aren't bad either.
Add to that my Dell account, and you've got a truly attractive piece.
I'm still gonna ride my TH55 as far as she'll take me, but oh hoh ho PPC you are tempting me!!

Ed, they don't show it in their web site, were you referring to Belkin's. If so, do you need software/driver to use?
