Generally speaking, you don;t need or want to have to get it - it's more a case of getting a phone or PDA that comes with WM5. There are updates / upgrades to WM5 for some specific device models, like the X50V - but a huge number of people have had major problems when updating a device that did not run WM5 out of the box.

I would suggest that always looking for a device that runs WM5 out of the box is your better bet ...

PDAs have the operating system installed as firmware. Now and again a firmware update will be released, updating the ROM, but in the case of WM5 you are best off getting a PDA already flashed with WM5.

thanks for the replies. seems i'm better off keeping the WM2003SE that came in my X30. I'm still working on learning all the features in that to add more confusion...LOL.

Just as well, the X30 can't run WM5
