And to those if you with X30s, if you think the transition for us with X50s to Windows Mobile 2005 (probably Q4 2005) will be smooth and flawless, you have another thing coming. The latest ROM release for the X50...A03 (i.e. third release), a full 6 months after the release of the device, FINALLY took care of a few of the problems that have hampered the device thus far, such as wi-fi/bluetooth memory leaks.

Your X30s, on ROM A05 are amazingly stable and will continue to be so...whereas there's going to be a painful process of dealing with problems for those people that upgrade X50s to Windows Mobile 2005...and then there's the possibility that Dell may abandon the project before coming up with a finalized ROM solving all the issues (as in what happened to the X5 Windows Media 2003 upgrade), and then perhaps remove the ability for X50 owners to even upgrade to 2005.

So, in the long run, you're in a pretty good place to be. It will be two years before there's software dedicated to only work with Windows Media 2005, and your X30 will continue to run any software faster than our X50s anyway.

Anyone else surprised that we haven't heard about a processor update for PPCs? I thought a 800 MHz would be hitting the market soon.
