Again, I think I am just a little excited about receiving my Axim. But, I just got my screen protectors and the travel cable that I ordered seperately, and I am wondering why the screen protectors are so small?

The screen protectors that I got were too small to even fit on my Palm. Please tell me that the screen on the Axim isn't this small. These things were the same size as a credit card, if not a little smaller.

I am anticipating the arrival of my Axim and don't want to be disappointed. If the screen really is that small, I will be sending it back, regardless of how efficient it is.




***Cliffnotes: screen protector really small. Is the screen really this small also? Thanks

If you really can't wait, then go to any CompUSA to look at the Pocket PC PDAs on display. CompUSA would not have Axim, but the screen sizes are similar among most PDAs.

But Ramon, this is a Pocket PC :D after all.

I understand that it isn't going to be a 10 inch screen. :lol: But, I thought it would be slightly bigger than my Palm M100. Maybe I am just crazy (I have been told that before)

Thanks

remember that your graffiti area is now screen space.

it is larger than a m100 screen with the graffit area included.

m100 screen:3.3 in diag
Axim screen: 3.5 in diag
but remember the m100 screen is square and the Axim's is rectangular
the Axim screen size is about: 5.5cm(W)x7.5cm (H)

That helps a lot. I was wondering how it measured compared to my Palm. The pictures make the screen look really big, then the plastic protectors came in and freaked me out. Thanks
