Noobie question - Arm, Mips, Sh3
What is the difference and how do you find out which version of a download is needed? I have an Axim X3, w/300Mhz, Intel XScale, running Rom ver A02.

They're different instruction sets, like Intel IA-32 versus PowerPC on the desktop, only for handhelds. The XScales used by the Axims are all ARMs.

So first choice should be XScale, second choice ARM. MIPS and SH3 will not work.
