Dell's raiding the Pocket PC pantry again with the Axim X5

byyusakugo Dec 3, 2002
100 Helpfuls 101 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Tons of features, great price.
Cons Size of the unit, Pocket PC OS.
Recommended it? Yes

Well, Dell is expanding its markets... it was just a matter of time before Dell dove into the handheld market. No surprise that it sided with the Pocket PC OS since Dell has had a strong relationship with Microsoft and Intel. Yes, many of the parts inside the Dell Axim are made by Intel.

I still want a T/X

byDargen Dec 31, 2005

Pros Bright screen, weight, size
Cons Hotsync, screen calibration
Recommended it? Yes

In early September my 2 year old Palm Zire 71 fried itself. One day it was charging, got really hot, and simply stopped working. I knew it was coming. For a couple weeks the battery didn't hold a charge and always felt warm, so when the PDA finally fried, I was little more than annoyed.

Cons Designed such that you must buy accessories to get full functionality, and other things
