Dude, You Still Want a Dell?

If you've been holding out on plunking down your change to get one of the Dell Pocket PCs, the time may once again be right. As they've done in the past, Dell is offering great prices on their two Axim models. After a $50 mail-in rebate, the model with the 400 MHz processor and 64MB RAM is $299 and the 300 MHz/32 MB model is only $199.
Of course, you have to buy the device from the Dell Web site in order to get the rebate. Other terms include:
"Rebates are redeemable after purchase at regular price (before rebate price). Rebate offer valid with new Dell Axim X5 Handheld purchased by 3/19/03 11PM CT. Rebate coupon must be postmarked within 30 calendar days of your system ship date."
I know there have been plenty of reviews published about the Dell Axim, but just let me add my own 2 cents-worth: I've had one for a couple of weeks now and simply LOVE it. I've stuck a Bluetooth CF card in it, and it has effectively replaced my iPAQ 3850. This is a great Pocket PC at a great price.
