I am getting extremely tired of problems with the Dell Axim x50v using
WM2003SE, and wonder if it would be worth changing to WM6? I understand
that there is a ROM available to upgrade, but would it be a bad move?
Anyone running WM6 with sucess on the x50v?

Or is it time to dump this PPC and look for something new?

Thanks James

The answer to each question really depends on just _what_ bugs you
about the x50v. For example, you'll be hard pressed to find a better
screen, and many things I dislike about WiFi have never improved.

I can't really comment on the quality of the x50v port I use a WM6 cooked
ROM on the x51v (and a lot of other "old" PDA's like the HTC Universal,
Wizard, hx4700 etc.) On it, it runs just great.

Again, I don't know / haven't tested any of these ROM's. Make sure you read
the threads carefully before upgading to any of them.

Werner, it seems my problem is that my Dell Axim x50v is running WM2003SE
(Not WM 5.0) and those ROMS will only upgrade from WM5.

I guess I will have to buy WM5 from Dell before I can do anything else...
Is that right?

Thanks
James
