Dell have produced a great PDA in the X30. The one to go for is the 624Mhz version and it has 64Mb ram. This can be expanded with SDRam cards or MMC.There is a cut down model without Wireless with a 312Mhz cpu but go for the 624Mhz model with Wireless 802.11b and Bluetooth. It comes from Dell with a USB sync cradle that also recharges your Axim.

There is an adapter that can be used with the power adapter to charge when you are travelling. Also included is a leather wallet
stylus and driver cd which has some extra software and demo versions of some commercial application software.

The operating system is MS Pocket PC 2003 SE. Bundled applications include Pocket Word, Excel, Notes, Media Player, Internet Explorer and MSN Messenger. Games include Solitaire and Jawbreaker an adictive game in the line of Tetris.

Uses for your PDA?

Visit websites from anywhere in the house or garden when connected to a wireless router. The BBC pda website has news, weather, sport and access to the h2g2 portal.

In addition to the PDA features like address book, appointments and messages, watch movies either on Media Player or a DivX player like tcpmp when you can download movies from the net. The screen can rotate so your widescreen movies look great MP3 files can be downloaded from your PC and use your PDA as an MP3 player.

Your SD card can be inserted from your digital camera to view the pictures you have taken on the 240x320 QVGA resolution screen.
The Radio Times site has an application that can be downloaded that allows you to sync with the latest tv schedules and you can remote control your television or digibox.

The killer applications;
Download Skype for Pocket PC and in conjunction with a bluetooth headset, you can be talking VOIP to other Skype users for free from your living room.

Get a bluetooth GPS adapter and Navigation software to turn your Dell Axim X30 into the perfect in car navigation system.

Get a blogging tool and write updates when you are out and about and can connect to a wireless access point.
