I am total new in PPC, I buy Dell X51V online (since the price drop untill Rm1288 and )% installment

) I just start to learnt how to used it i been using only PC at home, following a few question i need help!!!

1) For my information,to get online with x51v, i can either use Wifi to connect to a wifi access point or use Bluetooth to connect to bluetooth phone and surf via GPRS/edge/3g. If i am using Dial-up TMnet at home and there is not hotsport near my housing area, is there i can only get online using BT? how about the TMnet using phoneline?

2) If i want to tranfer any file like Word, Excell etc from my PC to my X51V, am i need a software to convert it ?

3) How about if i want to read chinese artical online using PPC? what software i should install? where i can find those software (free download or buying somewhere)

For 1.
You can connect to surf online using a wifi access point, such as a router at home connected to broadband Internet, etc.

You can connect to BT devices such as a cell phone to transfer files. You can also use the phone as a modem to surf the Internet, but that all depends on your cell phone and cell service provider. You have to verify that with your cell company.

2. You shouldn't have to do any conversion for WORD or EXCEL documents when moving them to/from the AXIM. The Activesync software easily moves the DOCs to/from the AXIM when docked in the cradle to your PC.

Actually the Active Sync Software does convert the files. Word files which are not converted cant be read by pocket word (but there are application which have the ability to read unconverted word files)

Did I not say to use ActiveSync? He doesn't need any other software for conversion with a new Axim, but thanks for throwing in your 1/2 cent info Sam.

He has got x51v with WM5. That means: Word and Excel files which are not converted CAN be read by pocket word. And Active Sync Software does not have to convert files.

you need this activesync to connect your pda with your pc. latest ver that you can get (download from microsoft) is 4.1.0 build 4841. either you use cradle or using bt to connect it.

For phone dialups you might want to look for CF modem on the web. This would enable to dialup using any phone line available.

Try Pocket DVD Wizard on the PC. Does a fine job.
