Stupid question RE x5 to x50

If I have numerous databases and .pdf type files on my x5, will they be compatable and/or convertable (easily) to the x50? If not, it may be too much work to upgrade.

I don't see what makes that a stupid question. I kinda wonder the same thing. Although, I don't have a bunch of databases, I do have lots of contacts, appointments, a few PDF's and a lot of today themes on there that I like. Anyone have any idea on how tough of an upgrade it is, to go from an old axim like an x5 to something newer? Do I have to worry about interoperability with the new version of WM2003 and some of my older programs?

yes, they will, as long as you install the software that u use to read them onto the x50.

just connect your new cradle, extablish a connection and sync. you can have both the x5 and x50 with different partner names and they can still sync, one at a time. programs will have to be loaded and you will get a warning that it may not work but just click on ok. so far none of the programs that i used on my x5 have caused any problems on my x50v.
