Is anybody planning on leaving their iPaq for the new Dells? Please convince me that I should stay with the iPaq (I have a 3955 now with plans to sell when my Dell shows up). It's not too late to cancel my Dell order....


Thanks.

:roll: why would you want to trade an iPAQ 39xx series for a new Dell Axim?

Everyone agrees that even the high end dell is still less than the iPAQ's and that they lead the field.

A recent us magazine done a palmtop super test and the iPAQs topped em. there just the mutts nutts.

While I admit there would be less of an argument to buy the 3955 over theDell if you were buying your first or upgrading from a 3630 but since you're not...don't switch. the 3955 is a better device albeit without built-in CF. at the very least wait until others get the device to see how good it really is. at this point i think you should cancel your order b/c you will be mad (i would be) if you get the dell adn miss your ipaq.

Dont cancel youre order.
Wait for the Dell to arrive and see how you like it, then sell one of those devices.
Ill be happy to help a brother out and buy wichever of the two machines you like least from you for a small contribution :twisted:

i could never ever sell an ipaq to buy a dell, and my main reason is size. And even if you need a CF slot you can get really slim ones for the ipaq which will even then make it slimer than the dell.

DONT leave the 3955 for a dell
now selling it at a decent price and giving a but more to get the H5450
i higlly recommend this if you want wifi, and bluetooth.

again if you want to get something more portable get the new h1910, i only recommend this if you do not inted to use expansion packs.


I have just sold my h3850 and i am getting an H5450. That means i am left with out a PPC for a while :cry:

:idea: Well one nifty thing about the Dell is that it has intigrated CF and replaceable battery. You can also buy a 1400 ma battery for it! Damn that is a phat battery!!!! I am still muggling along on my 3150 because I accedentally put my 3635 into the washing machine. Grrrr!
