I currently ahve a sony clie sj30 and am wanting to update to a pocket pc.
I am thinking on one of the following three:
dell axim v50-definetly the vga model!
Toshiba e830
or an ipaq.
I will mainly use it for calendaring,word documents and emailing.
and to produce power point presentations on a projector.
i love the voice record idea as well.
also i like the toshiba's screen size and sure wish dell's was bigger. I have heard of service issues with toshiba and availability in my area is pretty scarce.
With dell the advantage is that i can purchase all my accessories online.
What are anyone's thoughts?

so why did you post a poll asking for help if you ignored the only advice given?

because i went and bought it before the advice showed up.
there were no speedy replies like i am used to in forums.

I am now not liking my toshiba because i am having a heck of a time with the wi-fi configuration!
it looks like it may go back to the store..lol
toshiba could not fix it for me either and had me u to the level two telephone helper...

i think the 5555 had the easiest wifi ever.

You turn the wifi on in a lil window and then it looks ofr networks.
Then asks you if you want to connect and then if its a lan or the net.

It takes like 5 secondsrefurbs are availible for dirt cheap and they are awesome with 128MB RAM

darn, i wish i could find better selection where i live!
i took back my toshiba.. and ordered the dell axim v50 with vga.
the toshiba i think was damaged and the box had been opened and had been set up by soemone else.. i felt ripped off..lol
so when i get my new dell i hope it will be better.
i went to look at the hp's today ad no one had a good selection!
that is what i get for lilving in the sticks in Canada!..
