I got the X50v and love it, the X30 is a pretty good deal, but I figured 64
meg more of memory plus VGA for another $120.00 was worth it to me. I think
the reason the benchmarks are slower is X30 is QVA and the X50v is VGA so
it has to work 4 times as hard. I'm no expert on this.

I was also considering the HP, but I hate the touchpads, and didn't like the
price increase, either.

The X50v comes with MP10 built-in and is the only Pocket PC out there which
has integer scaling. Which is a fancy name for being able to take a QVGA
video and make it a pseudo VGA sized one. The Dell X50v has the speaker in
the front panel, so when I lay it down on the table I can still hear my
music playing with out being muffled like some rear speakered devices. Also,
the IRDA port is at the top so I don't have to stand sideways to receiver or
beam information. The screen is awesome! Great form-factor! It has dual card
slots, BT, and WiFi, are built-in and important to me. I think you'll see
some "bug" fixes coming out which will improve its benchmarks soon. For me,
this one's a keeper!
