The Bottom Line	Hold on to your handheld--the X30's fast processor runs away with strong performance and the latest OS to make for a powerful Pocket PC.	The Dell Axim X51 series offers a nice combination of features, but we were disappointed by the subpar battery life.	The Palm TX offers a winning package of wireless connectivity, productivity tools, and fun for users of all kinds.	The Dell Axim X51 series offers a nice combination of features, but we were disappointed by the subpar battery life.	The hx4700 offers powerful features and solid performance for on-the-go professionals--just be prepared to pay a hefty price.
