I've seen something about an A17 ROM, too, and so now I have no idea where I should go to download what file, and then what to do with it once I've got it. So after you have a good laugh, please let me know how to proceed to update my device.
Thanks.

Mark, go back a few posts to the second link in KellyT's post, the second link is for the Maaku WM6.1 which is now out of beta and works great. Download the file and unzip it. It contains two files, copy the files onto a SD card and insert into the axim.
The files are only applicable to x51v. The hard part is being able to press the right buttons. Realise there is a hard reset involved in this process and unless you use Sprite backup you can not restore your data across rom updates.
The SD Flash procedure is as follows: You need to hold the power button, and the wifi button in at the same time, then use the stylus to hold the reset switch in for a couple of seconds. this should bring up the flash loader screen, then depress the button in the center of the dpad twice to start the flash process. put the axim in the cradle and wait for the rom to load, it takes quite a bit of time but better on power. follow the prompts at the end of the loading and viola.
HTH
