Had the o2 XDA and XDA 2, now onto the Orange SPV M500.
Havent really added much onto the previous XDA's as didnt want to slow them down anymore. But gonna be adding some stuff to the m500 as soon as I get round to it!

Themes are definitly on my list aswell, using a pic at the moment as the ones that come with them are shite!
Yeah, loving the M500. Had some troubles with the XDA where it would crash every so often, but not had any troubles with this yet. Dont think the cameria is as good as on my XDA2 though, but not too arsed with this as dont use it too often. Its a hell of alot smaller than the XDA2 aswell, so better carrying round with you all the time.

I considered getting that XDA2i, but wanted a smaller one after the first two I'd had. The XDA mini isnt (or wasnt when I asked) being released over here, but the M500 is just the same (same as the Imate Jam and others) but with a darker case which looks better IMO.

na xda2s was the black version with the slide out query keyboard, xda2i is the silver version with no keyboard but better processor and more ram.
er hmmm themes right dont buy n e you can make your own you know just download themmaker from microsoft website, get a pciture off the net or something and then just make it can change colours ect then load onto the phone.
as for software i got about 1.5 gigs worth of it lol what you after.
generally i use things like emulators for games use morpheus as it emulates everything such as snes, nes, sega ect
there is also a playstation 1 emulator that does work lol
you want a decent file explorer, i use resco file explorer
want a decent mp3 player, such as pocket music lots better than windows media built in
if you want to whatch movies you want the divx player called pocket mvp, and also an encoder such as divx to pocket pc, nothing like whaching a movie or family guy episode on your pocket pc.
theres also so things like wisbar which is a basically a new skin for the pocket pc which gives it a windows xp look lets you put shortcuts on desktop adds lots more features such as open new pages in internet explorer ect.
and if you got a wi-fi network set up in y house you can set ya pocket pc so you can access media on your pc e.g mp3s, or videos from the phone. you can stream tv to the phone, and also use active sync over the wi-fi network.
