Pocket PC Wi-Fi cards arrive at last

After a series of delays lasting the best part of a year, SD/IO Wi-Fi cards for Microsoft Windows Mobile Pocket PC 2002 and 2003 PDAs have finally gone on sale in the UK reports The Guardian.

The £110 card from SanDisk, and £125 card from Socket, enable owners of non Wi-Fi-equipped PDAs to harness wireless (802.11b) connections to access the internet, and send email at broadband speeds via hotspots and home networks.

However, the cards are not compatible with all PDAs and smartphones running Microsoft platforms. Check with retailers such as www.expansys.com and www.blueunplugged.com.
