Thinking of rolling back, Question

So im thinking of rolling back, I don't have too many problems with wm5 but I have found that when I needed my Axim in a pinch I have to wait to use it or I have to do a soft reset to us my wifi. Anyway here's my question has anyone had any problems rolling back or will I have the same reliable se2003 I had?

I rolled back because I got tired of having to reset to get the CF card to recognize, or to get the CF GPS to recognize. It's working exactly the same as it was before the upgrade, and uses the A05 rom image. Read the instructions and follow them carefully and you should have no problem and be back in a short time. When you reboot after it's done, and it sits on the Dell boot screen let it be! It's re-creating the BIS and this can take from about 8 minutes (on my machine) to as long as 30 minutes on some. If you try to interrupt it can make the process painfully long or require you to reflash with a SD card.

I installed wm5 in december and have battled with it since (thank you axim site for ALOT of fixed!) I just rolled back and I hate to say this because I hate to lose and that is what it feels like, Dell has won. Anyway I with the rollback I have to say I now remember how much I loved my axim. Its quick and I get to use all my favorite programs. yes I do miss some of the wm5's features but not enough to reinstal it until the Dell fixes it. Sorry, but I gave up.

I tried WM5 and it was a very painful day spent with a nearly dead Ax; I rolled back and haven't regretted it - it was the best move.
