Quickies: Lexica, Handspring, NR70V, DMCA

Posted By: As Listed Monday, April 15, 2002 10:50:20 AM

Qvadis is developing Lexica, a Palm OS app that will do translations between English and several other languages. It's now in final beta tests, and will be launched in May. -PR

Handspring will announce its most recent quarterly earnings later this afternoon. -Ed

Sony's NR70V was released in Japan on Saturday. It is scheduled to be released in the U.S. early next month. There is a list of apps that support the NR series' 320 by 480 screen on CliéSource. -Eugene

Linux Journal has an article on the the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. While not Palm OS specific, the DMCA may affect handheld multimedia content in the future. The article is aimed toward someone who has never heard of the DMCA. -Philip Streck

I noticed in the computers at work, I work at best buy that the nr70 and the nr70v have instock dates of May 15...the last four sony pdas have come in about a week before the instock date listed on the computer...so I am hoping ot see these pds around the first week in may....so we can only hope.

RandomGuy, what, if anything, is BestBuy's computers saying about the Pocketop keyboard? If I don't get a keyboard relatively soon for my T615, I just may jump to the NR70.

Anyone, seemingly, wanting a NR70V or NR70 Sony device can preorder at $509 at Sony's site:

Does It Freezes Often?

Some of my friends already bought the NR70 and NR70V in Hong Kong and Japan, but they said that their CLIE freezes from a lot more often than the others. Even though Sony has released a patch for them, but the rate of freezes still remains high.

I'm hoping the English version will get better.

Stupid Question

Stupid Question here...

If an app was designed to only support the Clie 320x320 screen, will it automatically support the NR70's screen in 320x320 (with virtual grafitti on) mode?

Yes, it will run fine in 320x320 mode with the virtual graffiti on.
