what pda for £250
 
wifi is a must

Hi Mate,

Picked a Dell Axim X50 up from ebay for £125.00 Delivered (Factory Refurb.). WiFi, BlueTooth etc. Got a PCMCIA/Compact Flash GPS receiver for £50.00 as well. For £250 you should get a nice GPS setup. The latest version of tomtom5 works a treat as well.

bundle it with a mobile phone and look at the XDA range ?

apples24 22 September 2006 08:22 PM

but that does look a nice unit



dont want a mobile phone the size of a pda to be honest

I found that the XDA's were very unstable (Have own XDA, XDA2, XDA2i, XDA2s) meaning lots of hard resets and loosing stuff.

Dell all the way imho ;)

the 420 mhz one on right for £188 has it got wifi wireless? i see it has bluetooth but not sure?

Do you want WiFi to dishonestly connect to other peoples wireless routers?

apples24 22 September 2006 09:12 PM

i want wifi so that i can access internet in hotels i travel too etc

I use the XDA Mini S . I rarely have to reset it, has wifi and allows me GPS navigation with a bluetooth gps sensor. Its small and saves me carrying around a seperate mobile or pda as they're both combined in one.

Yes guys, The Dell Axim X50 does have wifi. Damn good as well.

apples24 22 September 2006 10:58 PM

its the x51 im looking at now new from dell, i think the lower price one of 188 doesnt have wifi but the mid one @ 218 does, so ill prob get her to order that one on monday unless anyone can suggest otherwise?

I have a HP HX4700 here...wifi, bluetooth, 624MHz processor and nice big 4" VGA screen. It is as new complete with original packaging and a nifty metal case. Yours for £220 delivered.

apples24 23 September 2006 05:31 PM

thank for the offer but ive decided on the x51 520 mhz version, mainly due to price is right but seems a good unit, also dell are normally good machines and good warrantys


ANYONE GOT ANY GOOD SOFTWARE ABOUT?

glass guide evaluator would be ace ;)

apples24 24 September 2006 12:50 PM
