"Dell Computer said Wednesday it has identified a software glitch inside its Axim handheld and will not ship new units until it corrects the problem. The Round Rock, Texas, company said that Axim X5 models--its first and only handheld--running Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC contain a software glitch that reduces their performance on many applications."
The problem has been traced to Dell software within the Axim 2003 package. It is not an issue within Windows Mobile for 2003 itself. They are planning on offering the fix to existing owners via software download or CD-ROM. They have not provided an estimated delivery date.
