Hi all,

I´m from Madrid, Spain, and I have an Axim X5 Adv with a Netgear MA701 Wireless CF card.

My trouble started with my first axim. I bought it on december 4th, and received the CF card on january. 15 days later, my Axim started to do some strange things, the screen didn´t worked and there was like somebody was scratching over the surface.

I got a new Axim from Dell with no questions...

My second Axim died in a single night.
I left the PocketPC with the Netgear CF card on it charging in the cradle, and turned on.

Next morning, the axim didn´t worked, It hanged and didn´t restart with a soft-reset and worked less than 3 mins with a hard-reset...

I´ve just received my third axim, and I´m trying to get a new Netgear card...

Somebody have heard something like this?

It seems not to be very healthy for the Axim to leave the WiFi card on it while charging...

The funniest thing, is that the CF card works greatly...

Greetings

Rincewind
