Other than increased ROM and WM5, it sounds like an X50v. No compelling reason for me to upgrade.

I don't mind change as long as I'm not around when it happens.

Yep. I don't plan on upgrading either. Just send me my WM5 disk and that'll do me just fine.

Well, if its just WM 5.0 and increased ROM, then no need to upgrade for me. Besides, just got a 512MB CF card. Also, I'm thinking they will ship that WM 5.0 upgrade CD that I chose when I bought that Axim X50v. so...

I can put more games on that CF card now. :arcadefre

Wow. I didn't know X51 forum exists. It's not in the drop down menu yet.

Why is it that everyone keep talking about the 256MB ROM? The pdf spec from Dell only shows 128MB, just like the X50v.

I wonder if they've gone for faster ROM to reflect the differing memory usage model on WM5?

It'll be interesting to see the benchmarks.

Nooooooo!

Well.... you can actually base your decision based on all the discussions between the two models...

I guess, to me, it will depend on the price difference, as they are are pretty much the same in terms of specs...
