I've been provided the official PPC2003 upgrade from Dell (English) to apparently allow my Axim to change to English - and guess what - the installer comes up with "cannot upgrade - incorrect language" Do Dell know what they are doing ? In one phonecall they told me both that a new Axim is arriving for me in January (when I don't know) and that the upgrade CD they sent me should work ? So why send the new Axim then ? I'm getting rather annoyed by Dell now - I tried the I request a next day replacement for a working unit from them - like their service/warranty allows for - and they came back with- sorry we don't have any in stock so can't do that !

Is there anyway to circumvent the "language" checker. I was checking the setup.ini file etc - and I'm wondering if I ran one of the other executables on the CD that it would bypass the language check ?

I'm really surprised at this from Dell - I'm seriously considering calling my Credit Card and stating that I haven't received the goods I've ordered and take it from there .. Bit grey I suppose - but could I argue that the Spanish Axim I received is Unsolicited goods - as its definately not what I ordered (order quotes PPC2003 UK) ?

Any tips ?

Thanks for any help,

Mark.
