Wish dell would give me a X50(V) for my X51 :( lol

I had an X50(low) and dell replaced it with an X51(low) and now im wishing i would have played it differently and tried for the X50V. Doubt they would have done it, but was worth a try. WM5 is ok, but as things are id rather have the speed, vga and wm2003. Its ok to wish, right?

ha yea,they replaced my x50mid with an x50v I dunno if it was intentional or not but I'm glad

I am waiting for geeks.com or someone else to sell some new x50v like they did with the x5 at a reduced price. Screw the x51v I dont want it.

I can't say as how I blame you. I love my X50v. X51? No thank you.

Maybe I am in the minority, but I am very happy with the x51v vs. the x50v. I think WM5 has a few nice enhancements and the battery usage improvement/never losing data is really valuable to me. I actually feel like the x51v is slightly faster than my x50v was (although I have no idea why this would be so...)

But mostly all programs can run off the ppc2003se os not so with wm5

You are right that all programs will run off of 2003, but I haven't found anything that I use that doesn't work on WM5. I also really like the softkey approach as it gives me more opportunity to use my x51v one-handed...

I guess the bottom line for me is that I love both the x50v and x51v and get alot of utility out of both devices, I just wouldn't discourage anyone from getting an x51v since I believe it is a great device.

I absolutely LOVE my X51! Its my first Axim (upgraded from Palm IIIc). I think its plenty fast, but again not much to compare it to.

ya ,and I feel that reading and writing to the ROM is faster than reading and writing to RAM.

just kidding, peace.
