Ahh, the memories. The Clio... That and the Intermec 6651. Those were the machines I really wanted at that time, specifically for the ability to convert to tablet format. I could not afford either, and I ended up with a Psion Series 7 (got a good deal on an auction). I was very happy with the Psion and used it for years, but I still watched the prices on the Clio and the Intermec for a long time after.

Sadly, looking for a replacement for those machines is still a tough job. I had a Nokia 9300 for a while, but the keyboard just wasn't up to the task. Some of the new sub-notes show some promise, but they still don't have the battery life I came to expect with my Psion (even after I installed the netBook ROM and started surfing via WiFi). I cannot believe some of these companies are bragging about 3 hours of battery.

Guess I'll have to stick to my eBookwise and Tapwave for now.
