The Palm family shown off had no new models. At their stand they showed Palm m130 and m515. They certainly demonstrated all old models; nothing new except expansion modules which are much spoken about.

Sony unveiled NV70 - a very interesting model coming with a color display typical of T615 and T625.

The displayed T425 and T625 are analogs of the T415 and T615; the new models have a different marking as they are meant for Europe. The price recommended for end-users is 300 and 500 euros. I think it's quite expensive taking into account that their competitors are available at lower prices.

The following presentation sets attracted not only my attention - apart from PDAs they include such accessories as a camera designed for a MemoryStick slot.

Here are the PDAs with the attached accessories.

Apart from the company's accessories which allow us to turn the device into a digital camera or equip it with Bluetooth functions, there were a lot of devices from third companies, for example from Pretec. For example, they showed an adapter able to read SD/MMC and MemoryStick cards; the adapter was attached through the CompactFlash slot.

DS International which deals in production of metallic cases for PDAs called PocketArmor have also arrived at the display. I think that the price is quite high for their quality - 40 to 50 euros. But such covers can house Compaq iPaq devices together with their jackets.
