It's not a visor (no springboard). If it wasnt for
all the SB that i have, i would have purchased the Sony
by now.

Other then HiRes, long battery life, Jog Wheel, built in expandable memory, smaller form factor and a screen that you can actually USE during the day, outdoors...

what's the Sony Clie got that the Prism doesn't?

I remember in some interview with Handspring that they said that they would not release another color device until they could get the screen "right". It sounds like the case for the treo, good indoor, outdoor and good battery efficiency (same as mono). I think with the current OS and Sony competition, HS would not release a color Prism II unless they really felt it could compete. The dragonball processor is getting puney for screen support. Sony has to build in an additional graphics controller.

For me, I gave up the wait and bought another Prism (old one went to eBay), if it just had 16 meg internal I would be happy. Not willing to get the 16 meg upgrade due to warranty reasons.
