Ok, so I've got the x50, I've got windows mobile 5, I know where there are free wifi hotspots and i've seen others use their lap tops on it.... so how I do i go about setting mine up and being able to go online? if you can give me a tutorial or send me to one that would be great.
and does bluetooth only work if you have a bluetooth enabled cell?

To get started with wifi, tap the icon in the lower right corner of the today screen that looks like broken cell phone bars. Click turn on. This should turn wifi on. Bluetooth has many things it can do besides being used on cellphones.

If your Axim is the 416megahertz then you won't have wifi.

That's a bummer! Add a wifi card or trade to one with wifi built in!

There seems to be a lack of wifi cards that have WM5 drivers right now, so if you really want wifi, you should trade up.

thenewdino

trade what, to a whole new device? i dont' have any $ :(

Gigi

Well, you could sell your existing device and perhaps get a used/refurbished model with wifi.

From whom did you purchase the x50?

Perhaps the seller has x50v or an x50 High that you could trade up to?
