X50 updates ?
Hi Y'all,
Just rediscovered this site after 3 YEARS ! and still was able to login ! result


Started using my x50 (NOT "V") in anger again... are there any usefull updates to be had (internet explorer is looking very dated...) O.S. etc ?

And, how the heck do you setup a peer to peer, ad-hoc, computer to computer WIFI link ? A friend has just got an x50, and we can both connect to our routers... but not each other ! Its not a need, just an experiment thats turned into a quest !

Thanks


MOdel Dell X50
Processor Type Intel PXA270
RAM 64MB
ROM 128MB
ROM v A02

pocket ie will work better if u use the hack to make sites think its ie7 instead of ie4.

also, opera is a great alternative. it gives you a lot more features than ie and 'feels' more modern.

Thanks for the replies guys... I did try Opera the other day, but (theres always a "but" !) it installed fine, but wont run - I get the splash screen for a fraction of a second, then its gone !
Definitley got the correct version (twice :-( ) but i gave up.
