I managed to pick up a Clie TH55 in decent condition, and first impressions are very positive. In the end it came down to a choice between this and a T3, largely due to compatability with my other I.T. but also as a more realistic option for my work-related study. I've got MobiPocket up and running on my Vista PC and everything seems to be synching fine. For a PDA the screen is really nice (much better than my old and now defunct Pocket Loox and more recent and now defunct Treo 600). Reading ebooks is absolutely fine - no problems. I prefer reading on the PRS-505, but would be perfectly happy reading for a good long while on the PDA. Plus the facility to use my Concise OED is a major positive. Oh, and the free PDAMill games
