Interesting.... I don't see it offered anymore on the Dell web site. I think they pulled until they can find a fix if i had to guess..

I could not believe what I was reading so I checked. The software does show up on DELL if you do a search.

Search Results
Windows Mobile 5.0 Upgrade CD for Dell Axim X50/X50v Handhelds

Electronics & Accessories

BUT, WHEN YOU CLICK ON IT:

CAN YOU SAY - ABOUT TIME !!!

Since "everyone" knew how bad DELL blew their version of the software, I'm surprised it took so long. Ok, what I'm really surprised about is that DELL would actually admit (by its' actions) that it made such a big blunder !!

We can only hope that a fix is coming !!

I ordered the Dell WM5 cd on Dec 8th, Scheduled ship date of Dec 23rd. It was delayed until Jan 9th, then on Jan 9th It got delayed again until Jan 16th. I wonder if a new version is coming.

WM5 reminds me of how the Microsoft Millenium Operating System for PCs. They are both pieces of crap that were thrown together in a hurry and abandoned.It took MS a year or so before they agreed with the rest of the world. So maybe we will get the equivelent of Win XP Pro for the PPC... or maybe not.

So I guess that what they still sell in Dell's Spanish site is the defective version. I will not buy it until I make sure the version is an updated one!! Even more knowing there is no way back to WM2003SE for "foreign" languages...
