My new axim (400mhz) arrived yesterday!!! Few concerns tho....

ok. im new here, i just got my axim delivered yesterday but ive run into a few probems.
For one, DELL didn't ship the 64MB SD card that was suppppposed to come with the axim. But i gave them a ring today and they said they would have it sent out to me.

secondly I just cant get Microsoft active sync to recognise the Axim. when i click "get connected" it justs says searching and it looks at the USB and COM ports but doesnt find anythingeventhough its plugged into the USB (which works because i use it for my printer). But sometimes i CAN connect connect the PC and the Axim from the Axim just by pressing the power button. although it never works when i click "sync" from active sync in the axim. Im left clueless about whats wrong because sometimes it does connect, by itself from the axim, but when i try to make it connect it never works. Any help?

Also Im a bit suspicious of DELL sending me a refurbished model instead of a brand new one because when i go to start>settings>memory>storage card it says i have 22MB availble evnthought i have no SD or Compact flash card in it. If this is available i cant seem to access it from the File Browser. This made me think whether it was someone else's axim who left this setting in it from when he had a storage card. Is there anyway i can confirm whether or not this is a refurb?

On the invoice it says 48MB ROM and 64MB RAM (SD card). well they are sending me the SD CARD because they didnt include it originally but when i got to start>settings>memory>main memory then it says 64MB available instead of 48 (it should be 48 right?) I woudlnt complain if i had extra ROm, but i find this a bit hard to belive.

I guess thats it for now. shame because i havent really had a chance to play with it because of these problems.

Thanks and forgive me if i dont make sense in somplaces because i wrote this without thinking it out much.

PS the axim cradle is so sexy.
