All of you guys that have plunked down the $$'s for the 5555, are you happy? Any quirks? Heading off to buy one as soon as my replacement CC comes in the mail. What are your general comments/critiques/criticisms of the device. The one thing I so far don't like is no CIR, but, I can live without that. I searched for reviews from owners, but, I guess I'm searching wrong. I'm really in love with the device and can't wait to get one. Also, do you think it better to get one from BestBuy with the replacement plan or not. (Personally I would prefer the BB plan to skip the run-arounds of mailing back and forth with the OEM's)

I Love mines, it replaced my 5455 which worked well but the 5555 is just a joy to use. It's fast and beleive it or not I've only hit the reset button twice(pocket movie player causes some issue) but other than that I'm very happy. I too wish they left cir in but they didn't and I had to get over that. I have verified that they did remove it, it's not there at all. When I got my 5555 home I opened it up and compared it to my 5455 and the ir in the 5455 is different. Both my 5455 and 3970 have the same ir but the 5555 doesn't so there you have it. Performance wise it's great. I installed pocket tv on my 5555 and played the clip Mikes new car from monsters inc and on my 5455 I was getting 14.7 fps at best, on my 5555 I was getting 29.3 8O . Go for it I think you'll really be happy, as far as the replacement plans go I don't have a clue.

How does PIE run? My one quirk with the 3835 is that sometimes it can up to 45 seconds for the pages to load.

Dunno about the 5550 but since it's Windows Mobile 2003.... i can say pIE WHIPS!!!! I open mine on my Ipaq 2215 and that thing loads up pages in 2 seconds (well that's avantgo pages but i noticed it's faster than avantgo on others... about 50% faster to me... I load pages via the USB connection and it's still faster than before.)

Pages load up much faster than 45 seconds. I'll have to open some pages and see how long it takes, I jump between ie and netfront but pie does seem much better in the new os.

How about voice recording quality compare to 5455?
Any buzz in background? :?:
Thx

[that_kid]

Recording is fine on my 5555, actually I never had a problem with the quality on my 5455 either.

I upgraded from a Jornada 568 to a 5555, I love it. The screen is big and easier to read and it just seems like everything flies. This was a greatgpurchase for me.

Where made the "5555"?
Thanks for your help!

Does anyone know if it's possible to use the Expansion Jackets with the Extended replaceable battery on the 555x?

From the photos I've seen, the battery looks a bit too thick.
