WM5 can be gotten from Dell. There are several threads on this site that describe the upgrade process and its results. Some here have liked the change and others did not want any thing to do with the change and went back to what they had prior to the upgrade. I suggest you do a 'search' on this site of WM5 upgrade and you should find lots of great information to help you make your decision. BTW welcome to the site its a great place to come for helpful information and tips. The people that visit here are also very willing to help with their experiences and knowledge.

where do i get wm3 .. .. from .. may be i wont like wm5 and i wanna go back to wm3. where can i get that from ?? . buy it from ebay that too

I read the first few posts and that is a real turn-off. I need a wm5 device now that my office upgraded to Office 2007 w/Outlook 2007. I thought about upgrading my x50v w/2003se for about 10 seconds. But instead I bought a wm5 device. My time is worth more than it costs to upgrade.
ty .. i upgraded my x50 to wm5 works great so far,,i just gotta check out later everything .. like apps .............i just set it up my bluetooth .. wireless internet via my cell phone.. works good :-)
had a little trouble in the biggening . but now its works fine
u know what i think i should go back to wm2003 lol .. dont really like much this wm5 .. wut do u say
Its a personal decision. Many other X50 users have done the upgrade and went back due to response and just not liking the WM5. Others like it and have stayed with it. WM5 is one of the reasons I got my X51V and not a X50V (used at the time).

How was your experience Andy?
having done the original upgrade and downgrade again... I was convinced that ao2 wouldn't work any better... so I didn't upgrade.
however thud did a lot of leg work... testing.. and documented what he did.. and so I have to admit I was wrong. ao2 does work and very nicely too. you have to be a bit careful... but its easier for me to have two device on the same os.
nah .................well i downgraded back to 2003...with A05 ROM.. i am happy it works flawlesss .......its alot faster now my machine :-)
i had to download the file from dell .com
any way thanx budd
