All the models are touch screen, the battery life on all of them isnt that long, if you use it alot youll have to charge it everyday, the model i have dosnt have wi-fi but most of them do, i would say go for the Xda range rather than Pda, and if you not restricted by money go for the Xda exec, i think the models are called different names in the US so just google the modles i said you should find loads of info. If find the windows software to be slow at times but there are other options. This is a good link to compare all of them : http://www.my-xda.com/comp.html P.S If it rains forget about taking it out, and its also a muggers dream hope this helps blues Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Remster 30 #4 March 13, 2006 A budy of mine has a Dell Axim x50v, and its really cool. He loaded up the Tom Tom GPS SW on it, and with a wireless antenna, its just awsome! He figures the 51 are buggy, but the 50 runs nice.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Opie 0 #5 March 13, 2006 QuoteA budy of mine has a Dell Axim x50v, and its really cool.

Dell's only showing the 51s on there site now, so I hope they have things smoothed out. Do you remember how the screen was for viewing outdoors?

The battery settings for power saving made the screen a little dark tho.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
