Default X5 is here :)

Received the Axim today in Toronto...

I ordered on Cdn website on 11-20, received it today 11-29. The
website's ETA was 12-3 so this was a surprise! No rebate form in the box (but was on the packing slip) so have to d/l and print.

It's being charged right now and I compared it with my Casio E125. It 'looks' smaller because of the tapered and rounded sides......cell-phone like battery means no more loose E125 battery in the back cover problem!!

Question: Can I have both sync-ing to the same PC :?: Should I un-install the previous ActiveSync :?:

Thanks.

You Canadians get every thing . I ordered on the 18th wasn't shipped until the 26th. Arrived at the local UPS location on the 27th. Of course the union has the place shut down till Monday :x . Of course I'll be at work so it won't be till Monday night that I get it. As far as your question, I would think you'd be better off with the latest version that came with the Axim.

Yeah - but at least you can get your milk in jugs like NORMAL people, and not in those bags....

Really? I was at a Safeway in Vancouver to get my Aero bars and Coke with real sugar and I didn't see the milk bags...

My husband has a friend in Calgary who works at a grocery store and he said that they only now started carrying the bags-o-milk.

We've had the litre milk bags forever here in Vancouver, same for the four litre jugs. Those 1.89L cartons as well. I actually knew a guy who used to work as a milkman here as well, I was surprised about that! Cool huh? Sorry for the off-topicness ops:

Default How do you like the screen?

How the screen of the Axim compare to the E125? I have an e115 and the reason i've upgraded yet is mainly for the screen.

Thanks

The Casio screens are great, too bad they are don't have products in the running anymore here in North America.
So far, I've only used the Axim indoors, and it is definitely sharper than
the E125. At max brightness, the E125 is brighter than the Dell... I compared when the both are on internal battery with the dails set at max.
(I will try to take a pic and post it)
