Talk:Dell Axim

Untitled

Compare Dell Axim and Dell Axim x30. I don't know anything about these but they look pretty similar. Brianjd

Massive Beef-Up

Made the article look presentable to make it look more like a real Wikipedia Article. Any credible edits should be done at all costs, since this is rather an incomplete article. Criticisms and Concerns are encouraged, since that is an incomplete section of this article as well. I will watch and moderate this article to ensure it meets all Wikipedia Standards. Thanks.—Vesther 20:30, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

Inappropiate Tone/Unreferenced tags

I marked the Criticisms and Concerns section as inappropriate and unreferenced. The only references cited were bulletin boards, which are not suitable as sources.

Also, statements such as:

• "Dell has no solution to this problem, besides an offer to buy a new Axim."
• "...many users have reported a huge amount of problems..."
• "Wifi support...is problematic at best"
• "Microsoft [rushed] the release of Windows Mobile 5.0, telling manufacturers to complete part of the operating system by themselves"
• "Microsoft's extremely poor implementation of a Bluetooth stack"

are inflammatory, opinionated, and uncited.

Critisms

Shouldn't these be deleted, as there are no proper citations?

There are forums that detail these reportswhicky1978 ^talk 19:05, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Forums are not realiable sources, neither are blogs. See WP:V. The lone exception is when a company makes a habit of using official forums to make announcements (and then only the announcement by a verifiable company employee is usable as citation).--Crossmr 03:10, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

I agree that forums are not reputable sources - however "user reports that there were issues with XYZ" might be a better avenue rather than deleting these nuanced comments.pinchies (talk) 06:17, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

Pricing

Don't you think it sounds a bit too advertisement-ish to have the prices discussed on an article like this? Just curious. — Vesther (U * T/R * CTD) 01:45, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

-- I think pricing is useful in this article for both a practical perspective as well as a historical reference. Might not be interesting now but in 5 - 10 years, it might be mind boggling that we spent 500 bucks on such a device.

Exactly. Compare with base price of the iPad now in 2010: US-$499. Kar98 (talk) 04:32, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Criticisms and concerns

I've tagged this section for a complete rewrite. I'm not familiar with the whole situation on many of these issues, so I feel I cannot accurate portray these concerns and solutions myself. However the current content is unformatted, unsourced, inaccurate, and generally well below normal Wikipedia quality. I feel it's important to leave this section, but in it's current state it deserves deletion. SHARD 05:24, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Its been removed. It was completely unsourced for too long.--Crossmr 03:11, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

AxDroid

There's a project to port Google Android to the Axim x50 and x51 series. Of course the v models are the primary targets but there's also work going on for the lesser versions. http://axdroid.wikia.com/wiki/AxDroid_Wiki Bizzybody (talk) 08:50, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
