I feel I must reply as I have been through this same thing with another list. I owned a Dell Axim and recently bought a Palm TX. There are two main things you need to decide. First, is genealogy going to be your primary use and function. Second, is whether money is an osbstacle. If money is NO obstacle and the primary use is genealogy, by all means go with a Dell Axim which is rated the best in its "class." The GedStar Pro doesn't even begin to compare with the Pocket Genealogist. However, Pocket Genealogist will NOT run on Palm systems. I think the Palm is a much better piece of equipment. As soon as I held it, I could tell the difference. The Palm operating system, in my opinion, is better than the Windows. So, if money is an obstacle go with the Palm which is actually better quality but you are stuck with the inferior GedStar Pro. If money is not obstacle, go with a Dell and use Pocket Genealogist. If you plan to do more other things than you will genealogy go with the Palm. As I say, I have experienced both. I loved my Dell Axim…….until I got my Palm TX.
