did anyone else notice that last night, if you added it to your cart, the $199 model says it has 48/64mb of ram that the $299 model has, instead of the 32/32mb on the front page? now it seems corrected.
From someone who spent two hours staring at the checkout screen, yeah I noticed that too. If I had bought it, I was hoping their specs were not right since they claimed that the Advanced model had 32/48 instead of 48/64.

The software is usually dependent on the processor whether it's a StrongARM, XScale, MIPS, etc.

just a reminder: for those w/ 10% coupon codes, DO NOT delete it until you resend the 5% coupons to your friends or post them here for other members.

I wouldn't be begging for coupon codes on these forums, but anyways I'm kind of surprised no one has mentioned the transflective screen. Isn't that the same type of screen on the higher up models of Ipaqs and other expensive pocket pcs? It's more viewable in sunlight and such?

If anyone here is kind enough and will not use their 10% code, please give it to me through PM. It will be greatly appreciated. I wanted to buy one but just don't have enough dollars right now, so I can really use that 10% off. Thanks.

A few problems!

Read the $50 MIR details: "Rebates are redeemable after purchase at regular system price (before rebate price) ." - dell.com/...

Based on that if you purchase it with any coupons, you will not be able to get the $50) MIR. (!)(?)

Still:
I do have a 10% off and $30 off codes!
But $30 off is not being accepted no matter what I've tried, seems like "toant103" was the only one in the world able to do it!

toant103, did you really do it? Or you assume? If so how exactly did you do it?


We need some hard facts on elegebility of MIR...
