Rick Steves, Sicily and Germany's Black Forest and My DELL Axim
I have a Dell Axim that is a very active podcast player. Yesterday while checking out what I had on the old SD chip to listen to before going on a bike ride. My Axim frooze up!!! After some serious trouble shooting I think I understand the problem:
Seems Rick Steves podcast on Sicily was just starting. My Axim, I found out later, is in the federal PDA protection program and was afraid to play something about Sicily.... so it froze up solid knowing it would get a hard reboot ... nothing in memory could follow it after the battery is out and it cools down. Sometimes I blame the all too frequent reboots on "it runs Windows" but this time there was a much more sinister reason.
PS the next morning it wouldn't work either.... but that I later learned was "operator error" it was locked so the buttons don't work...
