Interest in the Palm platform is now higher than ever. Daily rumors, remarks from the press conferences and promises of manufacturing companies are already so confused by ordinary users, that they are poor, are already waiting - do not wait for release of the operating system. Meanwhile, manufacturing companies do not lose time and to the fullest use of the potential that still remained in the rapidly aging Palm OS 4.1, which has to leave this fall for at least three fundamentally new machines to OS 5.0. become irrelevant. For example, Sony has for the last year three times already managed to update the model line. The math? So - T425/625 models - one update, then "Freaky" NR-series - two, and now the new - T665C. Moreover, note the haste, 425 and 625 models are already out of the sale from the site SonyStyle disappeared and the manufacture of their shot. T425C in general has been very "unlucky" - she had survived on the market just a few months. And rightly so. And we'll see what Sony is prepared at this time.

| New Sony T665C |
Well, the same "Japanese miracle" as the NR series, which we have previously mentioned, count, of course, no one dared, and rightly so - a new model was easier to name the new - it's slightly improved the old, or there is no limit to perfection. Describe how the new T665 model with all the formalities are not raised hand, and readers of this short review can accuse the author in an attempt to pour water. It will be easier to send that part of the distinguished audience that feels not much awareness of the issue range Sony model to a detailed review of T615C, and the rest report that T665 C is an almost exact copy of it ... With a few exceptions, of course.
Exceptions
The first is, of course, built-in MP3 player. And best of all it is that Sony engineers managed to add this pleasant appendage without increasing the size of the device. May be because, when they want! He lives now on the scroll wheel on the left side in a hole for headphones. Built, as in previous models on a single small processor, "eats" mp3 and ATRAC 4 cards MemoryStick.

However, apparently all because of the same size as the remote control to him now no - no on the unit rectangular holes under razemchik remote control - from the grandeur of the past there was only a volume control on the headphone wiring. But every cloud has a silver lining, the speaker T665 now easily copes with playing music (in a quiet environment) so that, if you wish, you can use it. The second change has a nice processor. He is now in exactly the same as in the NR-Series - 66 MHz Motorola Super VZ. Well, that may give an increase in the frequency - it's in our technologically-advanced country a no-brainer - an increase of productivity already doubled compared to previous models. The third change has touched the screen. Many spoke, and quite rightly, that bleklovat was a screen at the T615/625, flowers and "play pranks." Red at all for some reason did not like, therefore, showed it sparingly. Japanese engineers have tried and - oh, miracle, did the same a normal monitor. And the contrast is good, and all the colors in your rainbow ...:) And finally a bit of tar. It was too energy-intensive steel, all these innovations and critical battery is not enough for normal operation. Therefore statistics is as follows: the maximum lighting batteries is only two hours and five minutes.At half brightness - 3 hours and 5 minutes, at a minimum illumination recently been improved by only 30 minutes. Naturally, when using the player that time has decreased. Thus, even according to official information Sony, when the screen you can listen to music only a half hour, and with the screen (yes, this also provided) 4 hours 30 minutes. Well, but we believe this new product is successful enough to excuse the pun, kill two zayschev: replace the now sold 700 and 625 models of Sony and a little closer to what we are soon in full must be seen in the Palm OS 5.0.
