Dell Axim X30 (64MB, 624MHz processor)

[DCLonghorn]

Anyone familiar with this product? How is the software bundle, can I play mp3s and attach microsoft office XP files and powerpoint presentations? I want to use it mostly for graduate school papers, presentations and occasional work info. How long is battery life? thanks

That's gonna be slower than poop. About all you'll be able to do is browse the internet and use word. It's not gonna be to too hot for powerpoint.

actually 624mhz is pretty fast.

i don't think dell packages pocket powerpoint into the software, but i could be wrong.

Why do you say that LHF68?? If it's anything like the prototype I played with before I left Dell, and it is, it's one of the fastest handhelds I've ever played with

For a PDA, that's quite fast. I have no idea about its software bundle, though.

Are you looking for a PDA or a laptop?

Oops, I retract my statement. I misread the title. My bad. Ignore me.

I'm looking for a PDA that I can sync with my laptop. I want to be able to use Word, Powerpoint, Outlook and MP3. I do presentations at school and I want to be able to store the powerpoint presentation on the PDA and then hook it up to the computer in my classroom in order to give my presentation.

Do you need the presentation to actually run on the PDA, or do you simply want file transfer? If you want to just carry the file around, get a flash memory stick.
