I looked at both. I didn't see much in the Tungsten that would compell me to
pay the higher cost. Bluetooth wasn't of any interest. The slide covering
the Graffiti area seemed kind of silly to me since form factor has never
been an overriding concern to me for a PDA as long as it could fit in my
pants pocket.
The camera on the Zire 71 was of much interest as I will be doing some side
work that will require photos with notes attached. The screen on the Zire
seemed to be better and it works fine in the sun as well as indoors. About
the only negative would be the cosmetics of the unit. I think they searched
for the ugliest color blue they could find and went with that. It certainly
wasn't enough to stop me from buying it.
Oh, just a note. The instructions make it sound like you need some sort of
special expansion card to play MP3's. All you need is an SD memory card
which you'll likely want anyway.
