Well, I now have a second thought on my plan with Axim.

After using Axim 300 for two weeks, 4 days ago I called Dell to arrange return of 300 (purchased for $180) and ordered a 400 (PPC2003, $258 after coupon). The new 400 probably will take at least a few more days to be shipped.

But now I realize that there will soon be many new PPCs coming out. Now from Toshiba, HP/Compaq, Gateway, etc. and later this year by Dell. I'm having a second thought... maybe I should stick with 300 (not returned yet) and save the price difference of $80 for the next generation of PPCs.

A friend told me that soon there will be PPC with VGA (640x480?) screen. And I do hope the Axim to be lighter and slimmer. If Wi-Fi is built-in, the CF slot is not needed and the PPC can certainly be slim. An ideal PPC for me is to keep everything they do now but to be implemented in a form factor of Palm Vx.

Any info (on what to expect on future PPC) and thoughts?

Cheers.
