I guess I can sympathize on the 2003 upgrade but you do realize that the upgrade for 2003 was available for over a year. Dell stopped selling it when it stopped selling new x5's.

What was an upgrade to 2003se supposed to do for any of the non-vga devices other than introduce new bugs and incompatabilities? Functionally the only changes in SE are the vga support and the landscape switching, the first no being any benefit at all to earlier pda's and the second has much more elegant solutions via 3rd party? The decision to publish an upgrade has to be ballanced between the cost of support (bug hunting, tech support, maintaining 2 os's rather than 1, etc) versus the benefit which with the x5, x3 was virtually nothing.
