Are you satisfied with the X50v?

If you are, just say so but also if you arn't. What could be changed? What are you not satisfied with. What kinda troubles are you experiencing. And what really do you like.
Whats your overall opinion.

I myself am basically satisfied with the X50v. It could come with a better standard battery, but I already bought one (2200mAh) from Ebay for less then DELL asks for it.

Now I read (at Brighthand among others) that there seems to be a screen issue, the sensitivity of the screen. I have experienced that it isn't the screen sensitivity but the stylus and the way of holding and using it.

It has a rather "strange" tip, rather thick. You really have to told it straight on order for the screen to respond as it should respond and not tapping it with the side of the tip.
I have tried this out on the OZVGA screen with a very small font and I was amazed that the screen responded immidiatly after tapping it. I also adjusted the screen as good as I could, before.

Thought, I do experience a slow refresh in the screen when changing a picture or with in a app. But this could be the app. and probely can be solved with an ROM-update, in the nearby future.Though maybe this is bacause it is a VGA screen.

Given the fact I paid 464 excl.postage I am satisfied with the x50v. I think you get what you pay for, nothing more nothing less.
I wonder if one could say the same if you would have bought the HP 4705 which is $250 more and seems to have more problems too about 250 :) It is the name you pay for too!

Share you're opinion.
