Actually, most Clié are bought by person who earn at least more money than most of us.
At same price, I think the teenage generation prefer get an high tech game console rather than a little palm-like device with wich you can only play little games, listen mp3 and store friend phone numbers.
Of course,I know Clié is much more than what i describe just above, but i'm not sure that most of the Clié's owner are very young or very open minded to appreciate high tech demos on Clié.
So, what can the aim of Clié games and demos development be ?
Who are the Clié game's players? Who are the Clié demos watcher?
Have you got statistics on clié's owners per age, per job,...?
Why is it so difficult to find technical documents on Clié? It would be greater for the Clié's growing by leting developers get more documents.
Indeed, the most developper there is, the most users, so purchaser there are...

Your message is very interesting. I agree with you about Clie price (but the price has just brought down of about -20 purcent in France).
Sony reacted releasing the T600 and T400 series.
In a first time, i bought the Clie to program only (it remembers me the Atari ST period coz of Motorola chip). Now, i use it for programming (always of course), for my rendez-vous, phone numbers, games, MP3 playing (very good, variable bitrate available!), show photographs...
When i see an article or anything else on the web, i transmit it into my Clie and i can get it with me. I didn't think of all those uses when i bought it !
Of course, if you want only play games, it's a better idea to buy a GameBoy Advance. But no creations possibles with it.
We haven't stats, but i can tell you that when our DragonDemo has been released, we received dozens of mails.

I agree, it is very expensive for a game console. Unfortunately the scene is quite small because you're so right: it is an executive device and we do underground. Then why? because it is the last of the hacker's device available, you can access low level, do almost whatever you want. And what is interesting is the more you know it, the more powerful it gets. I cannot see a limit to this yet.
I bought min for work, time management and all the crap. Now I code it for fun.
