> So is a resonator more reliable than a crystal?

It is 'know' to be more shock-resistant, and it includes the capacitors,
so that is one (or actually two?) things less to worry about. And much
cheaper too. The only catch is that a resonator is much less accurate: I
think 1% worst case, 0.5 typical. A crystal is more like 50 or 100 ppm.
