I have been using my Axim now for about 6 months, it is my first handheld (except my old psion from years ago which ended up in a drawer).
I wont bother with all the specs etc because you can get them from the dell site! I will tell you more about the day in the life of my Axim. I use my Axim on a daily basis because it has a good contacts list (you may say I have that on my phone but this is just so much better) has email pretty much the same as a normal pc, Microsoft word, Excel, Media Player.
I mainly purchased my Axim though for Navigation (GPS) I purchased Destinator PN which is fantastic, but you need to have a power source because the battery goes down quite quick probably dead before you reach your destination if travelling for more than about 2 hours. This is partly due to the fact it has Bluetooth on all the time to receive its position and partly because it uses a lot of processing power.
Last week I tried the update to Windows Mobile 5 (WM5) very nice programme except it wouldn't install Destinator PN it said installing then said installed but nothing had happened, so this week back to 2003se, at which point you realise how much nicer WM5 looks to the eye. I have spoken to Destinator they said update very soon! Dell said update for the WM5 rom is out very soon.
When Dell released the Axim X51v I looked to see what they had changed, not a lot little more memory and got rid of the backup battery.
I think that when they get the rom working properly then the battery life will be a lot better.
So my conclusion stop reading the reviews and go and buy an Axim you wont be disappointed!!!
