Maybe not - the link gives a 'your session has expired' message and I can't find anything on the pocketpc.

Looks like they're available here in New Zealand too..
I just checked, and Dell NZ are finally offering them as well.
The promotional price is pretty good by our standards - NZ$662.63 for the low end model and NZ$898.88 for the Advanced.
(Shame I've more or less decided on an iPAQ 5450...at least this week).

Thanks for that - new link is ok and the pricing is not bad.
AUD578 for the basic 300mhz model compared to the Toshiba e330 which sells here for around AUD795. In fact the e330 comes in at pricing similiar to the Advanced 400mhz X5 which is AUD779.
But sadly the Advanced at AUD779 which is equivelant to around USD465, is still well above what they sell in the US for - which looks to be USD300 after the rebate.
Hopefully we'll see some more competitive pricing from Toshiba and COMPAQ over the coming months.

That's amazing for a PocketPC in New Zealand. I got my Axim in December, but I had to get my brother to ship it to NZ for me from the States (US$350 - rebate). Now I've been sent to Canada for work so I could have saved all the trouble...
Good to hear Dell aren't applying the standard "NZ pays double price for electronics" approach that most other companies employ.

Well we got ours in the UK a few weeks back (mine arrived last week), so you're not too far behind.
