Very impressed with the Dell Axim X5 Advanced, when compared to the iPaq's, as it has many of the features but at such a good price (£245 ~ 07-Sept-2003).
I will also point out that they now sell one with a WiFi CF card for about £290.

I've recently aquired this Dell Axim X5 Advanced as a replacement for my aging Palm IIIx. What a difference. This is now one of life's essentials.

Even better value if you buy Dell,s Axim bundle.
Thoroughly recommend it, but be careful when you order: Dell charged me for...

Bought this neat little toy as a personal christmas present for myself (selfish aren't I?) Overall I'm pleasantly suprised by how useful a little Pocket PC can be.

Dell Axim is known for its big size, not the small at all, and certainly not a pocket sized device. It's 1" longer than my NEC Mobile pro P300 and the iPaq s, and I find this 1" VERY important when it comes my pocket. The exposed CF-II slot is another draw back; when you put it in your pocket, it's mostly going to pick a lot of things like coins, strings, wool threads, and so...

Rather helpful for some finer points to consider when buying. The wife and I each bought the 400 Model Dell Axim X5 and wanted to find some reviews considering we weren't about to let the deal go since the price was right. Good take on your purchase.
