Question Which file type do I use?

I tried to download some programs for my new Dell Axim X3 and it came with a bunch of different types: ARM, ARMV4, MIPS, SH3, X86. Which am I supposed to use? I have an XScale processor at 300MHz. I'm confused.

Only ARM based programs will work.

Planet-Ed is correct. There is more available for ARM than Xscale right now, but either work. More Xscale will be coming along.
