I'm not sure about pricing, but if I were looking for a new one and money weren't an issue, that one has my attention. It's got memory, functionality, battery life, expansion slots, and of course wi-fi. I had previously scoffed at those media centers, but the last time I looked them up, then 3115 and the 3715 sounded pretty good.

Yup - love mine!

I am writing this from my sofa with a bluetooth connection.

I can connect to the net in hotels via wifi.

I can print via my IR printer.

I have used the camera to take 'evidence' pictures at work.

It works flawlessly with bluetooth gps (I recomend this over a wired option as when the cigar adapter falls out it keeps working)

I can change the tv channel when the missus hogs the remote :lol:

This is an awesome machine and I think underated.

Take a look at one if you dare.

The 3715 is a great all around PDA. My only real complaint is it doesn't have dual memory card slots, which isn't really a big deal (I just already had CF cards, and I might pick up a Microdrive).

Though I would shop around a bit. $499, is a bit steep.
