x3 won't fit in docking cradle
Help. My X3 won't fit in the docking cradle. One or two of the small pins appear to be bent. Any ideas? Thanks.

I fixed bent pins before with veri small nose plyers. Be very gentle and take your time to make sure you do not break them.

Some dental picks work too. But you should realize that it will happen again. Here is some info on what to do/how to do it.

If You can't but You have SMD soldering iron ask google for axim spares. I came across few companies that are selling axim connectors.

Bent pins
I've used a desk mounted magnifying glass and a mechanical pencil with the lead removed...it worked well.

I have the same probleme with bent pins on my X30,
But is it posible to use bluetooth or wireless card for synkronize data?
How do i do that?
I want to send new programs to Axim amd synkronize Outlook.

It's possible, but I think you need to be connected in order to set it up.

Check out ikehikers guide to wireless on axim on how to set up a wireless sync. I think it's wifi.aximsite.com.
