And definitely consider overclocking to 400mhz, because 300MHz isn't really good for much... especially gaming... IMHO if you were planning on using your Ax for gaming, you should've saved up a bit more and got the 400MHz one (I got mine refurbed for $220 shipped after a few stackable discounts).
You will notice speed increases in PocketSNES or Pocket Morphgear even without a PXA255 processor. My SNES games ran like crap on my WM2002 PXA250 400MHz Axim X5, but after upgrading to WM2003, most SNES games were playable.
