Dell Handhelds Get Glitch Fix
The latest on the Dell upgrades...it looks like we'll finally begin to see them in the next couple of weeks.
"Dell is ready to deliver a pair of software upgrades for its Axim X5 handheld, including a performance fix for some models and an optional operating system upgrade for others. The Round Rock, Texas, PC maker began shipping on Thursday a free update CD that contains software to remedy a performance glitch that affects Axim X5 models shipped with Microsoft's Windows Mobile 2003 Software for Pocket PC before July 16, a company representative said.
Meanwhile, Dell has also set a date to begin delivering an operating system upgrade for Axim X5 owners who wish to move up from Microsoft's Pocket PC 2002 to the Windows Mobile 2003 software. Delivery of the $29 upgrade had been delayed by the software glitch. Dell will begin shipping Windows Mobile 2003 upgrade CDs in the United States and most other countries on Sept. 17. CDs with the OS upgrade began shipping in Europe this week, she said."

It can't be that hard to upgrade--why aren't all the 0EM's like Siemens and TMobile sending out upgrades, even if there is a charge?
Your thoughts
Thanks

Hmm, strange... I got my world wide English ROM upgrade CD-ROM with a ROM image dated July 17 in the first week of August over here in Germany. Why does it take Dell so long to ship it in the USA?
