Axim Dell

PDAs and handheld devices have become almost commonplace in the business world. While many think of Dell as a great company that makes excellent PCs and notebooks, some are not aware that they have a comprehensive line of handheld devices as well. The Dell Axim handheld is comparable to some of the top PDAs on the market, and it costs significantly less than some of the more popular brands.

The Dell Axim absolutely does not skimp on the extras. The Axim comes loaded with Windows Mobile 5.0, which includes Windows Media Player 10. It features 64 megabytes of SDRAM and 256 megabytes of Flash memory (ROM). Additionally, the Axim Dell has a 624 MHz Intel Xscale processor.

The Axim Dell has a touch-sensitive transflective 16-bit color LCD screen that features over 65,000 colors with a 480 by 640 resolution. It comes with an Intel 2700G multimedia graphics accelerator and 16 megabytes of video memory. This tiny powerhouse is expandable, too, coming with a Compact Flash Type II card slot, and a Secure Digital/SDIO Now/MMC memory card slot.

Always striving to make their products as versatile as possible, Dell has outfitted their Axim with integrated 802.11b and Bluetooth wireless components so that you can hook up to a wide variety of wireless devices. The Axim also has a headset jack and it supports VoIP speech recognition technologies. If you need to take "voice notes," the Axim also comes with a full duplex microphone so that you can simply use it as a digital recorder.
