The X50v and hx4700 are the ones I like the most but neither of them have a big enough FileStore and giving up software is not an option. So with WM5 just around the corner it seems like a step backwards instead of forwards when it comes to memory. I have always hated advertising of the amount of memory in PPCs and its not the amount you get to use. I hope that it does change.

Right now you can store many if not most of your programs on an external Flash card if you want to and if you know what you are doing (it's kind of tricky with some programs). Are they going to remove that capability with WM5?

I only keep games and documents on an SD card which stays in my PPC. Programs I need to keep on the PPC itself. I use my device alot between personal and business life and it's not convenient to keep programs on SD cards. I still use my 5555 because of the amount of memory it has. I would love to have a PPC with a VGA screen but none of them fit my memory requirements. That's very disappointing to me. With every new PPC made we make trade offs instead of adding to already good designs and that's what I don't understand or like having to do. Call me picky but that's how I see it.
