I've used my Axim X50v longer and more often than anything else I've had, probably equal to my laptop. When you think about it, it was one amazing item that was and still is able to do a lot of things for free that the newer cell phone based products can do in their own way but you pay quite a lot for it per use or even in a high flat rate to a 'provider'. I'm happy enough with 2003SE but I think that it's unfortunate that the companies involved (mostly wireless providers) pressured manufacturers to change from the basic PDA to a cell phone with a tiny screen that can't really do what most older Axim's can do. There are some real nice new things out there now, and of course I'm interested, but give me my x50v and Skype any day. I have noticed that many web sites now kludge access to mobiles with separate sites so I don't have the access I would like to the 'real' site, but I do have a laptop for that. Free WiFi at Starbucks is just around the corner, so there's still good stuff happening, too.
