Now that we know WM5 is coming out and that we can upgrade, what is the most you would spend for it.

29.99 with free shipping.

IMHO,

What about zero cents not a penny,

the thing is with my x30h there won't be

any benifits. Magneto is met for newer hardware,

though it is said it can run on the x30h.

knowing myself if does become available i

mite try it.

 

50......

Free would be good but I guess 20.00 will do.

30 if it is an improvement.

  

20-30 for existing users

$30.......

   

err this is an upgrade for the X50 series we're talking about here. If you need to call 911 you better use a phone - just thought you might like to know that now

i kinda knew i was openning myself for some flaming,

i wasn't answering the question ask for one thing.

my thoughts were met for M$ insane preposition that

their OS is stable enought for the phones market.

and if history does repeat itself it shan't ever be "ready".

I haven't noticed how much bigger the foot print will be,

lets hope it won't like win98 versus winxp, from 200 meg

to a whooping 1.5 gig footprint. And it still needs to

be rebooted. but then again, i'm ranting and raving yet again.

 

well personally i think that the symbian smartphone is about the best of the smartphones... but my problem with the smartphone concept is less about the os than the form factor... but thats probably an argument for another thread.

I thought this thread was talking about the X50V upgrade to 2005 but reading it i concede that it could have been interpreted as talking about 2005 (or wm5 as we now know it). So if my last post seemed harsh (and i can see how it might have appeared like that) i apologies...

Right thats my bit said... I'll get off the stage now

$30 would seem fair. Anymore would depend on how it ran on my X50v from other users feedback.

I still have the X5, which Dell claimed at first would receive the WM2k3se upgrade then changed their minds. Though I hope they don't dash the hopes of the X50 owners as they did us, I'll believe it when I actually see where someone posted a successful upgrade. Be that as it may, it's not worth one red cent. It will be buggy as the dickens and I'd much rather buy new hardware than the old X50. Apparently already a company will be coming out with spanking new hardware with WM2k5 on it, so I'm anxious to see some real improvement in hardware from other manufacturers (not expecting much from Dell, these days). It's about time a REAL USB port was included in PocketPCs.

I'm hoping it's the rumored Dell media device with hard drive. But if it's not a Pocket PC at heart than I'm not upgrading so buying the upgrad is a logical choise for me. I probably won't install it at all. That happened when HP had the WM2003 upgrade for thier HP2215's. I still have it in the shrink-wrap.

I will probably buy it too but will definitely wait for at least one or two ROM upgrade before doing so unless it is solid and better right from day one.
