Agreed, and would also add, that you might want to check out aximsite.com.
most who have received and played with the x51's are very pleased with the
performance.

| Gerald,
|
| As for Windows Mobile 5 benchmarks, I would not read a lot into them at
the
| moment. Every benchmarking tool I know of is geared for WM2003SE and
| earlier which handles memory completely different. Until those tools are
| updated, it is not something that can be given a lot of weight. That
said,
| yes, you are right: ROM is slower and most of the reports I've seen here
in
| this newsgroup and via user emails have stated that the initial sync with
| ActiveSync takes a very long time. But, most have also indicated that
they
| are not noticing a big slow down during normal use. I'm still waiting for
| my upgrade from Dell for my x50v, so I can't speak to this from experience
| yet.
|
| Speaking of upgrades, HP is not offering an upgrade on the 2210. For a
| complete list of devices that will have an upgrade, go to
| http://www.clintonfitch.com/wm5/default.asp.
|
| Keep in mind that they way WM5 works is similar to your PC. The RAM is
used
| for program execution now, not application and data storage. I'm not sure
| how a database application would work. I've not seen any postings on that
| here or in other forums.
|
| Hope this helps,
|
