Well, I've done it. I put my order in last night for a Dell Axim x30 and will probably have it in a week or so. I could no longer resist the siren call of that big screen and wifi. I'm using preemptive birthday money: my bday is not until the end of October! But I got a mid-range unit for $237. It's possible that they might go lower in coming months when the long awaited x50 arrives, but it's hard to imagine that they could go too much lower. Regardless, I'm not looking back. I'll pass my T|E on to my wife, who currently steals it for Scrabble every night anyway. She's been straggling by with an old M100, and I think that she may enjoy the T|E a bit more. I'll miss dear old Plucker, but I'll come into the world of µbook, and iSilo will still be there for me. I'll keep you up to date with the pains of transition...
