I bought one of these new from Dixon's about 6 months ago.

Running PPC2002 it is dog slow.  wireless lan hardly ever worked,
bluetooth would crash with "lack of memory issues" randomly.

However since upgrading to Windows mobile 2003, it has been far more
stable, and faster.

Im told thi shas something to do with it being bassed on an x-scale
processor, which PPC2002 doesnt support very well.

Verdict:  As long as ur willing to pay the 30 quid to upgrade to
WM2003, this is a great high-end PDA, if not go for the 5550, and get
the same device with twice the memory (and a nice little belt
pouch  ;-) )
