Axim Owners Want Answers & a Fix to Windows Mobile 5
Posted by Jason Dunn in "SITES & RESOURCES" @ 05:31 PM
"We the owners of various Dell Axims (X50, X50v, X51, X51v) feel that the upgrade to WM5 is not well supported. We enjoy this product but we can no long sit by and let our words go unheard. We collectively agree that the update to Windows Mobile 5 is not properly working on our systems and we would like quick and detailed action in response to this problem. We are well aware that this is a problem on a multitude of handhelds because your company has even released a rollback program...."
Some Dell Axim owners have put together an online petition to protest the state of affairs with the Axim and Windows Mobile 5. I can understand their frustration, though the calculating part of me wonders if a move like this will only cement Dell towards not releasing any future upgrades. And since users can always roll back to 2003 SE, I don't know if this petition will result in good things for the platform. What do you think?
On a seperate note, I find it darkly ironic that on the petition Web site I saw a Google AdSense ad for Dell Axim Pocket PCs. :lol:
