Clie UX50 - comments?

I'm seriously considering picking one up. Think the combination of keyboard, panorama format, Bluetooth and WiFi are unbeatable for my needs. Anyone have feedback before I shell out my $700???

Thanks.

BTW, was surprised to find Clies stringently price controlled in SIN.

Screen is WAY too small and without the extended (BIG a$$) battery it's useless. Wait for the rumoured UX80 with the large screen.

The print ads make it look a lot bigger and brighter than it really is. Yet a colleague has one and loves it. If I can get my employer to pay for it, I'll may buy one. I'll ask Cierge about the "80" model first though.
