Building the OS for the X30 (which by the same logic (admittedly it's my logic)) is also not a good candidate makes less sense.
Anyway - I don't mean to derail your thread. If you're up to it, I would like to see a list of WM 5 specific applications. If you want to commit to doing that then I think that would be great.

Hey, no offence here
I just think (which is justified by other threads in the X30`s section) that there are many enough users who would like to see the newest apps running on their X30s (especially the High version) to make it worth trying.
Besides, the technical difference between the X30H and X50L is (according to my knowledge) small enough to make adjusting the new OS a low cost operation. I mean it`s not the m125 vs X30H kind of difference. IMO it`s just the lousy "accountancy oriented approach" that creates a "problem" here.
If everything is going to develop that way, we`re going to have to switch our gear every six months in few years time just because corporations want to make more money in shorter period of time - and I don`t like that vision at all...
Once again - it`s not socialism, it`s customer-oriented approach here
