Default Amazon Selling Dell Axim
It seems Dell is now selling the Axim X5 Pocket PC through Amazon. No stock or order links yet, but the product pages are up. So, keep these affiliate links handy to order your Axim X5 300MHz or Axim X5 400MHz Pocket PCs.

The 17" and 19" monitors from Dell on Amazon's site are availbe both new and used - used coming from customers selling/auctioning back through Amazon. They would clearly spell out used/refurbished, and Dell has an arm that sells refurbished product through eBay auctions.

Hmmm. I have a sick feeling that folks who order via Amazon will receive their Axims before those of us who ordered early and directly from Dell. Unlikely, I know, but this waiting breeds strange thoughts...
:evil:

Do you know if you get the rebates if you order from Amazon? I can get Amazon US to ship to the UK, but Dell US won't - SO - I might consider getting an Axim from the US..........

Amazon still shows "This item is not stocked or has been discontinued." I guess that people will not be getting them in a hurry then.

My guess would be because they (A) want to make a big impression on the PDA market and (B) are finding that people not obsessed over the PDA market (like say, people other than us) don't think of Dell for their PDA needs.

I've seen a lot of studies that said, as brief as it was, that had Dell not sold computers through Circuity City, PC Club, etc... that they would not be as sucessful as they are today.

Sort of a bait and switch, buy your first PDA through Amazon, be happy with it, then go to get an upgrade and find you now have to buy it through Dell

I'm betting Amazon never sells them new. I bet they just add new products to their database so that they are there when sellers in Z-shop and auctions want to sell them.
