It's a nice device. I heard that it's really fast. But this is my
first Windows Mobile one, I switched from a Palm, and I think it's
very slow actually.
The Palm is very responsive. There is always a delay of a few seconds
when you launch an application. Even when you actually click on an
item to select it.

Also, coming from the Palm world, I find ActiveSync to be one of the
crappiest software I have ever seen: duplicates info, very slow,
syncs several times in a row without asking, syncs every 5-10 minutes
without asking, doesn't allow you to sync in one direction only,
always considers that Outlook has the right info, not the device,
etc...


Sincerely,
Steve JORDI

Thanks for the response Steve. The only problem I have with the Palm units
is that the batteries are user replaceable.
Also, it is easier to add/remove programs from the Windows based unit.

However, if Palm had a user replaceable battery I could be convinced to go
PALM.
