What speed do you run your axim at?
I've went into power recently and set mine from auto to Normal.
I've found that on auto, it has a short delay open or changing things, compared to normal.
Powersave also seems to work well, when I want to conserv battery and am just reading web pages or listning to a mp3.
What do you use?

Here's an interesting tidbit: I had my Axim400 set at 200Mhz for a week and never noticed until today. It had seemed a teensy bit slower for web browsing, but I just chalked it up to having too much cr*p installed.

I keep mine on PowerSave unless I am using my SNES emulator, then I turn it to Auto.

I have a 300MHZ that I normally overclock at 400mhz
with no problem(TurboTray). I run it at 400 for movies and
games. If not, I usually just keep it on powersave.

I changed mine to 400 Mhz a number of weeks ago. I'm not really sure it is any faster but I feel better.:D Before I made the change, there was a thread regarding a decrease in battery longivety if such a change is made. Since I have mine in the cradle every night, I don't notice any difference.

I keep mine set to "Normal" (400 Mhz). When set to Auto I found changing applications or reading my AvantGo too slow. Normal cuts the delays noticably. I have noticed higher power consumption, but it not a huge difference...maybe 9 hours/charge instead of 10.

I had been running it on 'Auto', but am going to try it at Normal (400 MHz) for awhile now to see if I notice the difference.

Auto. If I want to conserve the batteries I put it on Powersave and dim the backlight
