Question on buying games

Im getting too bored at school so imma get a few games for my pda. however when i go looking around at games and when i download a few free ones(ie a tetris clone) i see all these optiosn for Xscale ARM and many versions of a game(1.0 1.3 etc.) do i have to worry which type of game i download? and will these games allow me to update them(im looking at the Pocket EQ and Warfare inc.) if i buy them will i be stuck if the release a new one or how does one go about getting updateS?

Xscale (or ARM).And a newest version, of course! For WM2003 or WM2003SE (depending your OS).They SHOULD offer you a free update, if one is available.

BTW. What do you mean, that studying is boring? Oh, man! How old are you, if I may ask? When you come to my age (I'm 47 now), you will find out, that you never learned enough!

i never said studying was boring(that all depends on the subject) but my half my teachers this semester are insanely boring(my bio and algebra). im honestly still a kid only 18 and just starting college, only problem is the subjects i really enjoy(history and philosophy is growing rapidly) really offer no career choice other than teaching(and that is probably the worse thing i'd be good at) so most of my classes seem boring

I hear ya. If a teacher is any good they can keep most kids tuned in regardless of the subject. I had a few good teachers, but most of them were rather boring.

College should be a bit better.
42.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

Ok, Flip Lx. Sorry about my hard words. I was in bad mood yesterday.
And besides, I don't know much about scools or studying in US, because I'm from Finland.

Oh, great! Where did "h" go from the word "schools"?

And Flip_Lx, I don't know about X30, because I don't have one, but in X5 Basic the standard battery doesn't last very long particularly
if the brightness is full.

I have an X3i, so I'm guessing the battery power will be at least somewhat similar to the X30, thought a 624mgz processor probably eat up more power. I wouldn't count on the battery lasted very long, so try to find a seat in class next to a power outlet . Also, you mentioned that you are taking algebra. Unless you already shovelled out the cash for a TI, check out spacetime at twostunads.com. great calculator. Does most of the things the TI-83 can from what I've read and some things it can't. I use spacetime now for college algebra and trig. I'll probably have to get a TI eventually but for now I'm saving alot of $.

P.S. - make sure that your instructors will let you use your Axim before buying spacetime.
