Default More Loox 720 Comparison Shots

http://www.pdaclub.pl/gallery.php?g_id=18&g_p=1

If you're interested in the F/S Loox 720 or a VGA PDA in general, check this set of pictures over at PDAclub.pl out. Not only do they have some nice side-by-side shots of the hardware itself, they take closeups of the screen so you get an idea of the VGA effect.



This shot, with the 720 in the middle, shows that it's pretty compact compared to previous-generation Pocket PCs like the Casio E200 on the left.

Wow, I didn't care about not having a VGA screen until I saw these comparison shots. Now I've got screen envy. 8O

Oh, just saw what you said on FirstLoox.

Looks like Expansys USA is selling it, but for $672.95! Ouch. I wonder if it has an American warranty. Maybe I'll wait for them to release it in the US, if they do...

The warranty is a worldwide one.

OK, I'll admit, that is tempting.
But... first of all, $673 plus shipping is a lot. I could get the hx4705 for less than that.
Also, I think the hx4705 actually does have some nice features itself (like flip case, magnesium body, maybe the bigger screen).
But it would be nice to get my PDA now, rather than wait potentially a few months. In fact, it may even negate the added cost, since I could most likely get more for my 2215 now than when the hx4705 comes out. (And the camera and CIR are definitely tempting...)

Hmm, this is interesting. Do you think it will come out in the US soon, and if it does, will it be noticibly less expensive (since it's not imported)?
