Well...... I guess its the question of which do you want an apple or a peach? They both have good and bad points. But I wont leave you there. After selling electronics for over 15 years 10 in my own business I can say with certanty that the first step is forget them both. Sit down and make a list of the things you must have in a PDA, Then below that the things you would like and then top it off with it would be nice but your not paying extra for it. Then go put the list together with the specs from individual models. Come up with a few models to choose from and then pick one from each maker if you can. Sometimes one will stand out from the other and make the choice easy. As for dell vs hp. Where you live could make a difference. Now I only have others voice on HP no real experience but they are known for having propriatary stuff. So buy from them only is the way. Dell I have been able to get stuff everywhere here in the city. Dell has been top notch when it comes to service either by phone or by internet. Broken parts are replaced via the fedex system quickly and easily. I liked the way dell handled my questions when I was looking for my PDA where as HP was slow and unresponsive several times. So have fun. Jonathon
The Dell Axim PDA was a good PDA with its sleek design, WIFI, and dual expansion slots. However it became a big disappointment to many users because of the very short battery life.

The average retail price for a Dell Axim x51v PDA is about $529.00. But careful shopping and sale watching can bring this price considerably down. For example it can currently be found on Amazon for $229.00.

The best place to find full information on the Dell Axim X5 would be directly from Dell itself. This was an early model pda designed by Dell in 2002.

According to eBay, a Dell Palm is "a full-featured Pocket PC that appeals to the office-user and PDA-enthusiast alike". This device is very lightweight.
better go for dell.
There are a variety of brands that offer handheld PDA devices. They can range in size, shape and color. These brands include Dell, HP, Sony and Nokia.
"PDA hand helds are a good value if you are a business person. If not, you might do better with a smart phone or even an android. PDA's are mainly used to business."
Dell has a line of PDA's called the Axim family. First introduced in 2002 and the last model was made in 2007. All models run on software from Windows Microsoft.
I would recommend the Toshiba Pocket PC E400 PDA if you are planning to play games on your PDA - it's large screen offers a better view of the game.
