I want to upgrade the OS on my IPAQ (h6340) to windows mobile 5.0.
Is this possible? If so what do I need to do?

Or more to the point, thankfully for you its not possible, wm5 as an update sucks big time, it did for the 4700 anyway.

I am looking @ the 6515. I am an old school type and not high tech. I am an independent consultant. I want to be able to get my e-mail, have the palm and like the idea of the GPS. I have read some bad reviews on the 6515, screen size, locking up, etc. I have big fingers and like to enter with a stylus. Any thoughts, is this the best device out there and whatabout Windows 2003 vs 2005?
Thanks

6340 mentioned above and 6515 you mentioned are fairly old models. You may want to look at wm 5.0 models, there are reviews here

Thanks alot for your response. The reviews for phones with 5OS were a big help. It looks as if I should wait until the new 6915 becomes available from Cingular this summer.
