Is there a way xdaI (Wallaby) can connect to a wireless network?
all wifi SD cards are SDIO and xda1 dont support SDIO so not that i ever heard about

What about the MMC type cards or is that just another name for SD(SDIO)?
And what abuot COM1(SERIAL) on the bottom of the xda witch is used to connect to a desktop computer(SERIAL or USB), is there any kind of device which can connect to that port and is WiFi capable?
mmc and sd flash cards are the same interface
sd is a newer and faster (in general) then mmc
mmc is ONLY memory
sd when the device support SDIO can offer other features like WIFI and such
the serial connector in the buttom of the xda is special for the xda and other devices dont have the same connector as in the same wirering
supply and demand makes it unlikely that anybody would make a wifi
device which would work only for xda's
when all newer pda's support SDIO
also serial connection is way way way way slower then wifi and SDIO

I've been reading a lot about the Sandisk wifi card being unreliable with the XDA II, and on my hunt for a wifi card i've come across this from
Ambicom:http://www.ambicom.com/products/wave2net/wl11-sd.html
Has anybody had any experiences with it, good or bad, as it seems like a reasonable card as it's priced at just over £40.#
Thanks
as described here many of the sdio wifi cards use the same hardware
and can use the same drivers and many people use the sandisk with the socket driver and have good results with it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14929
it could be that the card you talk about is the same hardware
Has anyone tried this card with the socket drivers and does it use the same sys chipset?
Hi! I would appreciate your help in the following subject:
I would like to use a WiFi card with my QTek 1010. Since it appears that the 1010 is not equipped by default with a SDIO slot, I can not use the WiFi card...
My question is: is it possible somehow to make my 1010 compatible with SDIO cards? (ROM upgrade maybe???)
Thanks a lot!

no it's hardware
the cpu in xda1 dont have a SD interface so require an external chip to handle the sd interface
xda2 and later have a cpu which have an SD interface which support SDIO
unless one could find a chip which had the same legs and same interface and was in general 100% compatible with the SD interface chip in the xda1 one could solver it out and replace it
but possibly one would also run into driver related issues as roms are very spc in what drivers there
would be easier and cheaper to buy a new device
and it would most surdenly void any warrenty the device would have
Quiz question. I've been doing some research into SDIO wifi cards for WM2005 and my SPV M1000.
What i want to know is, What chipset do Socket SD WLAN cards use? Is it per-chance: "Inprocomm"
Reason i ask is, i've ordered a SAFECOM SD wifi card, which ive heard doesn't have drivers for WM2005, however, it use the above chipset.
Alternativley, does anyone have drivers for this model card, or a way to make it work?
Cheers,

Does anybody know of a WORKING internal GPS Module for the Prophet ? I'm talking about SDIO at most, but preferably some kind of internal extension board. I'm guessing everybody has had enough with carying around a bulky bluetooth gps receiver.
ya! that would be very nice...
No such thing, and not going to happen.
I am not quite sure about SDIO (though I never hear of one) but there is no such thing as "internal extension cards" for Prophet or any other WM device.
Their mother boards come as a closed unit and there are no connectors / slots for any hardware other then what is in the specs.
This is not a PC and the OEM never attended for people to take these things apart.
sdio
the wifi nic for the prophet is actually a SDIO extension board. not as in a physical board per say but as in the way it interfaces with the pda mb. the sd slot for the prophet i know that it is sdio compatible, what i don't know is if it supports the standard necessary for this one, for instance: http://www.globalsat.com.tw/eng/product_detail_00000053.htm
Actually the problem with that model is not the standard - they stated SDIO so no reason it wouldn't work, except they don't claim to support WM 5.
GPS basically throws ASCII strings to a serial port, but a card using SDIO would probably need a driver to be properly recognized by the OS and WM 2003 driver is more than likely not to work for WM 5.
On a side note: it is considerate of them to provide memory to replace the storage card who's place they are taking. (though this will create a problem with nav apps that lock on SD serial).
Hello,
Can anyone please tell me wheter the any SDIO card will work for GENE or not?
Also i want to know that, do they come with some memory or not?
I don't there is any SD card given bundled with the device. You may however get one for very cheap prices ~<10 dols.
Hi Carty, i think r.pitalia wanted to ask another thing.
The question is; Does any SDIO card ( For instance SDIO GPS receiver or SDIO Wi-Fi ) work with GENE?
Besides, The SDIO cards do not have extra memory in itself as far as i know however there is a slot for microSD memory cards on some of SDIO Cards such as this following products; http://www.spectec.com.tw/gps.htm
