I was very pleased in the time that the product arrived.It was in the exact shape that the seller had listed.I would use this seller again.
Holds SD CF type memory cards, contacts,appointments, tasks, any media file (not on all DMA files), and if u have the right tools the memory card could hold a couple full length movies. Overall Excellent Product high 4 stars Lasts about 2 days when in fair use. Works smoothly but its battery could be a little longer. It didnt so i had to go out and buy a socket wifi CF card. I have purchased this product and had the idea that it offered 802.1 wifi compatibility. Other than this problem i have been fine. Excellent for non-wifi users.
Though my needs are generally for addresses and appointments, the Axim was so easy to set up and use that I will explore its other uses. In short, the Axim suits my needs perfectly and promises easy exploration of other, more entertaining functions. After having my Palm go completely un-synchable, I was determined to find an easy to use, up to date PDA. The software offers continuous synching while it is attached to my computer, and simple drag-and-drop for moving files from the computer.
I don't know why anyone would buy an IPOD when you can buy a PDA and get all the same features and much much more. I find my dell pda to be very usefull from scheduling to listening to music to pretty much anything I need it for. You can add memory as you wish and save as many songs you want onto the sd cards.
Sometimes the downloads will play, other times they won't - I have no idea why, but it has something to do with the Axim's inability to recognize the licenses attached to the music files. Now, you might assume (as I did) that since Dell and Musicmatch have partnered, the Musicmatch downloads would be playable on a Dell PDA. From what I understand, other customers have encountered similar problems with other download services. Bright, clear screen; lightweight; stylish; adequate built-in memory; two expansion slots to give you the option of using either SD or CF cards. For rights-protected music, look elsewhere (or at least be sure the Axim will work with the service you use). You would be wrong.
Bottom line: For most functions, the X50 is great. In most respects the Dell Axim X50 is a very good product. The one drawback is that the firmware has serious issues with DRM (digital rights management) music files, such as the ones you can download from online music sites like Musicmatch. Musicmatch has no firmware upgrade for the Axim and offers no support.
