New Clamshell Sony Clie

The new PEG-UX50 resembles a mini-notebook with its clamshell-style magnesium case, yet weighs only 6 ounces.

With both 802.11b WiFi and Bluetooth built-in, the UX50 offers two methods of wireless communication.

The built-in 310,000 pixel digital camera supports up to 640x480 resolution, and allows users to take quick snapshots and transmit them over one of the wireless connections. You can also record and play back MPEG4 video (30 fps, 160x112).

The new wide-screen design features a high-resolution 480x320 display for easier Web browsing. The screen lifts to expose the keyboard, or swivels to hide the keyboard and use as a touch screen.

The UX50 runs Palm OS 5 and includes 29 MB of dedicated internal memory for storing multimedia content along with 16 MB of RAM. An automatic data back-up feature helps protect your information by moving data in RAM to non-volatile memory when a low battery state is detected.

The list price on the Sony site is $699.99.
