Axim X30 Pros/Cons

I was wondering what everyone thought exactly of their Axim. So I decided to make a Pro/Con list so we can say exactly what we like and dislike about

Pros:
Price
Size
Weight
SD Slot
Integrated WiFi
Blue Tooth
Extended Battery life

Cons:
Resolution (Since I am a video watcher a high res would of been nice, like 480x360)
Standard Battery life

Pros:

WM2003SE when it works the way it's supposed to

Cons:
WM2003SE during one of those strange random moments when it appears to have a mind of its own.

I guess everyone has about the same pros and cons regarding the x30. I guess one of the more controversial topic is the appearance. I personally like it, just a little change from all the fancy stuffs around me.

I like it too, but I wish that the screen covered more of the front like the 4150...

Newly added pro is the weight and speedy processor.

Newly add con is the flimsy connection on the axim to the docking station. Never really know if I get it in so I need to put it in very gingerly. Also have the synch cable and have the same problem. There was clear indication when I docked my old Palm in the station that it was in......

Overall great upgrade from a Palm...making all my other Palm users at work jealous!

Are you saying that the actual host on the axim is flimsy/unstable or are you talking about the part in the cradle?

I am talking about the acutal host on the axim. It does not look like it would withstand a tug in the wrong direction. My old palm looked like it had a sturdier host connection.

I have the travel synch cable and it get's caught in the axim host connection from time to time.
