(More customer reviews)Before I go on you MUST perform the activesync fix which is detailed at the aximforum website, once that fix is done the dissapearing CF card, the white screen of death, battery drain, random restarts all go away. And Rom A06 was shipped with mine.
Im floored at how powerful these PDAs have become. I have been using it for 2 weeks now, and today in this simple one day it made my entire investment worth it. Im a high level analyst at my company and today we had our offsite meeting, I was the junior member there everybody else was either manager, controller or a director.
Half way through the PPT the laptop crashed, we spent 20 minutes fiddling with it and finally realized it was jsut kaput. The IT guy on site said he would run to the office to bring another laptop but it would take 90 minutes, I said hang on.
I used my Axim 51V to log onto the hotels wireless internet asked our secretarhy at work to email us the presentation, then used my VGA cable to hook it up to the projector set it at 1024x768 and started up the presentation and we were good to go. The exceutives and managers were COMPLETELY floored, Im sure I just sold 5 axims for dell but also secured myself a solid bonus come March!
I whole heartedly endorse this item, not only does it more then suffice as a day planner its multimedia capabilities are mind blowing.Updated 2/21/2006
Still no problems as of yet and all the major negative comments I have seen are simply because they have not taken my advice above and done the fix. It is PARAMOUNT that you do the activesync fix. I have an SD card and a 4GB Microdrive in my axim, which I forgot in our Montreal office, it took me almost 10 days to get it back but when I did it still had 90% charge and I used it there so I know it was not at 100% when I left.
PS the boxwave crystal lcd protector with 99% transperency is a great addition.

Still going strong no problems what so ever, but I must emphasize PLEASE do your research there is so much that can be done with this. Dont let it just be a place to store phone numbers and an occasional appointment.
It is my 5 AM alarm clock, as soon as I wake up the screen shows me a 5 day weather forecast the top 5 international news stories 5 local news stories, and my appointments/meetings for the day. It sure beats the 20-30 minutes I'd lose every morning trying to read the paper, watch the weather channel, then the local news, and update my franklin planner.
