The Register is taking a closer look (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/01/17/review_dell_axim_x50v/print.html) (via Trustedreviews.com) at the Dell Axim X50v. The reviewer comes to the conclusion that this "fast and powerful" handheld with a "truly remarkable" price is the best PDA he has ever used. How could anyone resist buying this device after such praise?

It's pretty easy to resist. It runs WinCE - which means that it's slower, more cumbersome to use and less battery life.

So while I am still playing games and reading eBooks at 4PM, the person who owns the Axim has put it in his pocket - off - so that he doesn't have to completely reload it when the battery completely drains.

Yes, his AXIM is off.... He got all his work done using a VOIP phone 2 hours earlier. :laugh3:
