Well...the e800 obviously has the impressive VGA screen, which should become more commonplace hopefully over the next year. That is an option. The 5550 has a 3.8" 240x320 screen, which while it is physically larger by three tenths of an inch diagonally than the smaller iPAQs for example, it still has the same screen resolution.

I used to love the big 3.8" screen, it is nice, but for me, it was more important that I be able to carry my iPAQ around with me all the time. The only way that that was going to happen was with a smaller device, which for me was the 2215 first and now the 4150. It was absolutely worth it for me, it's a small trade off to get enhanced portability. I don't even notice a difference now. The dot pitch is tighter on these 3.5" screens as opposed to the bigger screens, and I love them now.

Just something to consider.
