Ihave heard varying reports on the success of using Windows Mobile 5 on the Axim x50v. I think generally they hve been more negative than positive. Is
there any reason to upgrade to WM5, or is it just not worth the hassle?
Ihave also heard that a lot of software won't run in WM5.
My system runs happily at present and works a treat, and also all the
software I use runs well in 2003SE.
Would I be wasting my time thinking about trying to upgrade to WM5 at the
moment?

Re: Hardware - Recommended Makes? ... The plan is that from WM5 onwards the Microsoft base OS can be upgraded without affecting the upper level drivers and radio stacks and other add-ons from the hardware manufacturers. ... Remember, when Microsoft released WM5 in about April/May 2005, it took until October or November before devices using that OS were available from HP and Dell.... If you have a WM2003SE device, AND the OEM offerred an upgrade to WM5, then you could most likely go back. ... their's a new OS on the horizon newer than wm5? ... (microsoft.public.pocketpc)
