Had a 8385 Compaq go South due to screen problems and the repair was to be $185.00. Bought the Dell for X5 for less than $300. Very much a power user and the X5 fits the bill alot more than I ever expected for the money. Nice expansion capabilities without clunky packs, it is built in. I use the CF... Read full review »

Pros Excellent value. Full Featured. Fast. As easy to use as my home PC.

Cons Weight. Horrible Stylus. No screen cover.

Recommended it? Yes

When I decided to upgrade my Visor Prism to a Pocket PC I was worried I would miss the Palm OS and ease of use that comes with it. I started shopping and was very discouraged by the high prices of the different Pocket PCs available. I felt I would be stuck using the Visor until the battery died and... Read full review »

Pros Good Service available, because you gonna need it

Cons ITS HATES FIREWALLS, and the bugger is a pain to install

Recommended it? Yes

What can I say, technology is looking good. This little machine has more power in it than my first computer that I bought ten years ago.

With Windows CE it also makes it easy to understand on how it works since it really looks like a small version of your compatible computer.

Dell Axim review

I looked on dell's website around 3 weeks ago and saw, for the first time, the Axim. Being an IT professional, I had heard that Dell was coming out with a line of PDAs, but hadn't heard the name, or specs of the device. Upon seeing the pics, specs, and most of all the... Read full review »

Recommended it? No

Sure its only $300 With the coupon, BUT..... If its too good to be true it probably is. That is the case here. The Dell Axim is extremely buggy, one moment your online, and the next it doesn't recognize your settings. I didn't do anything to them! The ActiveSync is OK but stick with the original,...

My Dell Axim beat up your Palm Pilot

Pros Ease of Use, Compatibility, style, screen

Cons length of sync process (may be due to the amount of contacts I have?)

Recommended it? Yes

I was given this Pocket PC for work when my Palm Pilot finally gave out which I don't think it was from wear and tear, but just keep resetting and losing all my data. My Palm became so unreliable that I could afford to use it.

I have been using my Dell Axim for about a year now and have... Read full review »

Great PocketPC PDA at a very attractive price.

Pros Removable battery, solid feel, nice display and TONS of available software.

Cons The D-pad is mushy, connectivity is sometimes a problem (ActiveSync).

Recommended it? Yes

I needed to replace an aging PDA that ran on WinCE and was about to purchase when Dell announced that they would be introducing a new line of PDAs. So I waited.

I was not disappointed. Once I looked at the specs for the X5 (400 MHz), I saw that comparable HP and Compaq units were often... Read full review »

Cons DPad lacks feel. Lack of aftermarket accessories because it's so new.

Recommended it? Yes

You get a PDA that's every bit as good as comparable units that cost $600 and up!

The SD slot is on the left and the CF slot is on top, allowing you to run, say, a WiFi card in your CF slot while having a 1/2 gig of flash memory in the SD card concurrently.

The sync cradle is... Read full review »

Cons weight and size

I have to be honest here, I didn't choose this product—my office purchased it for me. I have always used Palm products and have been very satisfied with them. But I had heard a lot about Pocket PC products and thought I would give it a try. So the main product arrives and is very nicely designed ad... Read full review »
