I had updated my hx2415 to WM5 but in the end reverted back to WM2003SE. 64
megs of ROM just isn't enough for WM5 especially considering that you only
have about 17 megs free after the update. It's also dreadfully slow unless
you apply some registry patches and even then it's not as fast as WM2003SE.

The D-Pad also tends to sroll wyl too fast with WM5 which is especially
annoying given that the D-Pad isn't all that great to begin with.

You can give it a whirl and make your own decision. If you decide, like me,
that it is not for you, you can always downgrade (the downgrade is on the
CD).
