Anyone NOT having major problems with WM5?

I just received my x51v last week and I don't seem to have any problems. Sure, it's a little slow...but than again, I've overloaded it with programs and today screen plugins (and that's no one's fault but my own). Am I in the minority here?

my X51 works pretty swell as well, although recently i've been having some problems with it not wanting to turn on until i soft reset it.....but thats only sometimes, other than that it works amazingly and I am extrememly glad I bought it.

My x51v is working very nicely. Just added pocket informant and sktools... and no problems today. Sometimes I mess with the wireless settings and have to fix before it starts working but that has been due to my fiddling. I wish the connection settings were easier to understand. I've also done a backup and restore to make sure it works... no problems!

Both of my WM5 devices (X50v and a Cingular 8125) both work great. 95%+ percent of my problems were due to a lack of knowledge on my part or poorly written software.

I'm (knock on wood) not having any problems. Maybe I'm just being lucky and avoiding the things that are giving other people problems?

I also haven't upgraded the rom at all. I figure if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Same here - have not upgraded the ROM on the X51V because it works splendidly ever since I got it months ago. Also have no issues running WM5 on an 8125 ...

Major problems? No. Minor ones like vanishing SD cards, or bad apps screwing about with my settings and forcing hard resets? Yes. :D

No problems. If anything its running rather well. No soft resets for almost a month. Only problem is the bluetooth stack, but that might get better over time.

The only problem I have with my x51v is that it doesn't make coffee for me when I tell it to. :)
