Cblaisd, I would have agreed with you a few years ago. Having recently purchased both the Dell Axim and a Tungsten T5 I was shocked at the difference in these models. The Palm crashed probably 5 times as frequently. The mail on the Palm is awful, even compared to the standard Email on the Pocket PC. I have spent a lot of time trying to fugure out how to do things with the T5 even though I have used Palm OS products since the first Palm Pilot. Some stuff I have just given up on. The only reason I use it is for Life Balance/Daynotez software. Other than that I wouldnt bother dealing with it I suspect. But you are right, it is likely a largely personal thing and possibly heavily influenced by the apps you use most frequently.
