Hi, I'm wondering whether the UX50 is the right device for me, so I've put together a couple of questions:

1) Can I open PDF files natively?
2) Can I just put files on a memory stick with card reader on OS X?
3) With which software do you sync your Cli�?
4) Does Sony's e-mail application support IMAP (for .mac e-mail for example)?
5) How is the WiFi range?
6) Is it possible to play mp3s which are located on a memory stick?
7) Which apps do you use everyday/are killer apps on your Cli�?
8) Is the screen large enough to note down small notes (i didn't find it to work that well on a 160x160 Palm display)?

4. don't know
5. very good, better than most other built-in wifi for pdas
6. sure
7. i skip this one
8. yes and no... depending on your eye sight.. it's small but sharp. I don't think it's ready for prime time not taking though...
