Hey ejay...

Looks like everyone's given up on this one... so the bl**dy corporations win again it would seem. I was hoping that a couple of people who had promising conversations with Dell A/P would follow those leads up but it seems they've given up too.

As for me, well I'd still like to see the upgrade for the Axim but I'm now using my iPAQ with WM2003 nearly all the time now and am thinking about eBaying my Axim. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I recommended my clients not buy Dell and as such they are looking at buying around 250-300 Viewsonic PDA's which are reasonably priced and come with WM2003 preloaded. Just hope someone at Dell A/P reads this one day and realises how their couldn't-care-less attitude has lost them a *large* A/P PDA sale.

I will be thinking *very* carefully about buying Dell from now on... my laptop needs replacing soon but I am looking at Compaq now instead of Dell - and that's from somone who's had 3 or 4 Dell laptops... just very, very disappointed at their attitude to their A/P customers.

I'm still willing to support the fight for the upgrade but I simply don't have the time to chase and chase and nag and whinge to Dell. I hope that they eventually come to their senses and give us the update... I'm not going to hold my breath for it though!

Mike.
