Default Photo of the Rumoured Dell Axim X50?

http://www.aximsite.com/boards/show...ead.php?t=50535

There's nothing in this thread other than a photo, and no details as to where it came from, but here's a rumoured photo of the rumoured X50:



Whenever we post images like this, there's always the "Photoshop'd!" comments, so let's try it with a poll this time.

Uh, there IS more information. They're posting a release date of 10/12. All I've heard so far was that it would be released sometime in October.

I wish Dell would do a pre-order. My guess is that they're not going to have enough on hand to meet the original orders Especially if they beat HP to market with the next VGA PPC.

I don't want to eat my own words later but it looks like it could be fake to me. Such a small photo and it looks more like HP designed it then Dell. I'm a little weary of it right now.

I think it's real (or close to real).

That picture has shown up in a few places in much the same form. Looks rather nice, like the new HPs should have looked.

I remember being excited by those "X7" rumours ages ago. Looks like it finally arriving, even if it does have a different name

I think the device will look something close to this. This is probably a mock-up of the device for presentations, etc. The question is how far off it will be from the real thing. Hopefully not too much as this is a good looking piece of hardware!

It looks ugly enough to be a real Dell device.
It doesnt appeal to me, none of the Dellīs have design that appeals to me.

Actually it doesn't look like a real Dell device because of not ugly enough. It looks nice.

Well it looks cheap enough to be a Dell.

For me, it certainly looks nicer than iPaq 4700. Of course I haven't seen either of them in person, so my opinion may change.
