The basic, monochrome personal digital assistant (PDA) is the first product from Sony since it licensed Palm's operating system last year. Far from a unique take on the basic PDA, the Clie resembles a narrowed Palm V with the addition of a Memory Stick slot and a jog dial for navigation. The Clie will be available for preorder starting today from the Sony Web site for $399. It will be available nationwide in September. The 4-ounce Clie includes 8MB of RAM and an 8MB Memory Stick, Sony's proprietary portable memory technology. Eventually, Sony plans to offer add-on gadgets like digital cameras, using the Memory Stick in the same manner as the Handspring uses its Springboard expansion slot.
