I too have a Dell Axim X5 Advanced. I use it constantly, all day every day. My wife is always wondering if it is even possible for me to go anywhere without it. I've got 512MB of extra memory in it on storage cards (looking to upgrade to even more... say a 512MB SD card and a 1GB CF card).

I use it for all of the following:
Email
Wireless Internet/Networking
Games
Reading ebooks (I carry anywhere from 15-30 books on it at all times)
Reading Word docs while commuting
Watching Movies (rip my DVDs to encoded mpeg or divx and put em on a storage card)
Music

It's really the most useful device I've ever used.

I got started with the original USR Palm Pilot. Then moved on to a Psion 3c, then a 5c. After the Psion experience (which I loved but for lack of software and color screens) I moved on to Windows CE devices. My first CE device was a Compaq handheld (with a keyboard in a clamshell case). Then I moved to the Casio E-105, then the E-125 and now, finally, the Dell Axim.
