Question New cool ways to use my Axim X30

Come on guys, I am sure there are tons of cool gadgets and software out there to make the most out of my Axim X30.

Here is my current setup:
I use To
--------------------------------------------
- Beta player .96 to play videos, mp3s. also in my car with an FM transmitter (mercury)
- Pocket TV listing as my TV guide
- Stock Manager to track my investment
- Messaging to connect to my Gmail
- Pictures to view my Jpgs
- Avantgo to read news
- Skype as my voip phone
- etc

I am always looking for ways to connect neat hardware or install new software on my PDA.
* I am looking for an SD-Camera card to turn my Axim into a video cam and digital camera.
* I am also looking for a cheap satelite radio reciever or FM radio reciever for my Axim.
Any Ideas?
Thanks for your efforts.
Abe

GSPlayer wouldn't give me any volume when I had it installed. I couldn't figure out why, so I went back to Midplay just so I can play midis.

I __LOVE__ using VNC with my PDA!! For me, I use my PDA mostly at school, where I have a constant wi-fi connection. With VNC running at home, I am never away from my computer and its files!

I have and use one of these... I would have to rate it as good for outdoor lighting situations, but indoors under normal incandescent light I would say poor. It does produce decent pictures.

I too was taken in by the toshiba. Paid $600 and the thing won't even turn on now. It was slow and buggy from the start, lost it's memory if I took the battery out.

Toshiba's support and warrantee sucked.

I will never buy ANY product with the Toshiba brand on it for the rest of my life.

VERY bitter.


BUT my Axim x30 high is awesome, cheaper, faster,more features, better support and more reliable. Too h@ll with Toshiba, long live Dell!!!

i had an e310 for about 2 months. the damn thing wouldnt hold a charge for more than 15 seconds. thought about replacing the battery and using it for just ebooks and such, becaue i dont care if it falls off a cliff, or out of my car onto interstate 10

My e740's battery lasted forever, but the wifi was never that strong due to the internal antenna not being all that great. The dual card slot was nice, but because they never upgraded it to 2003, it was very slow. 2002 was never made to optimize a 400mhz processor.

My Axim X30 has been great. The battery isn't as good, but it's all good as I'm getting an extended one.
