Thinking of buying new HX4700...Buy.com has it new for about $555.00. Concerned though about buying "old" technology..BUT..love the feel of a metal PDA...had a Sony Clie NR-70 and loved that feel. Bought a Palm TX..its ok...but reviews of HX4700 seem so generally great...I know that I can upgrade to wm5 now for HX...though people seem fine and happy with old OS. I really will only use it for Calander, Contacts, occassional web surfing, and say, picture viewing from SD card. I know that HX is overkill for this basic stuff..but feel of unit is key for me...hate plastic devices. (one thing...MUST HAVE ability to use Continental Airlines website and it uses JAVA ...does Wm2003SE Internet Explorer do it like the IE in WM5.0? )

Would I just be better off with say an HX2795?

Also...really love persistent memory idea in new OS, but sounds like old OS can do someting close to it...HP filestore or something?

THANKS
