IM GETTING AN AXIM 5 ! ....


IM GETTING AN AXIM 5 ! ....

Postby Guest » Jan 29, 2003 @ 5:09am

There was a good deal for AXIM 5 (400mhz) on TSC in Canada. It costs 665 bucks CDN, but it came with tons of features! The DELL site was with the same features for $749!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!

Travel Sync.....extra warranty...stylus....screen protecter.....and more.....a week to ship though ;(

So I was wondering, where do I start? (no COMPACT FLASH CARD OR SD CARD AT ALL...) So what can I store with 48 Flash ROM?

But......there is a catch. I have 30 days to return it. I am 90% sure that I will. Why? My dad said it will get cheaper after that time. I will refund it all then after a new one will come out with many feaures. Dell Axim for a month..or I may not even but another pocket pc at all......must get a new PC. im only a high schooler ;)

That's very stupid. You're going to send it back in because it might be cheaper? You're going to lose $50 ABOVE whatever you "get a refund" on your Axim just from shipping and restocking fees. If you want to end up draining a LOT of money just to basically rent a PocketPC for a month then you might as well just go to BestBuy every day and play around with their display units.

You can store 48MB in 48MB of FlashROM, however you don't use ROM to store data, you use the 64MB of RAM to store information, in which case you have 64MB.

I'm moving this thread to the General PocketPC Discussion board. It will get more replies there.

Dude, Moose, chill out. Are you in one of your "hate everyone" moods again? The guy asked a question, you don't need to tell him how stupid he is, just give some advice.

Actually, I am in a bad mood right now. But that doesn't mean that what I said isn't relevant. Just because I told him not to waste his money on shipping I'm suddenly a hater? Okay then, pass me the watabe.

I don't know, I just made it up. But when I came back today and saw it I think it actually is something, like a japanese spatula, seriously.

Malebolgia breathes undead life into the charred corpse of all of those who don't understand. I now mutate into a demonic alter-ego of his own.
