SDIO Wi-Fi Card

[felcus]

Dealr All,

Most of my data, files, and some applications are in SD card (512MB) because of limitted space in my zire 72, When I used SDIO Wi-Fi card, I have a problem of where I have to save some files specially some email attachedment, is there a space in Wi-Fi Card for storing of that data? Also I can not run some of my programs.

Thanks and regards
Felix

This is one of the big downsides of not having built-in wifi. The PalmOne wifi card only does wifi - there's no addtional memory for programs or data like you'd normally store on an SD card. You have to store any programs you need to use with wifi and any data like e-mail in RAM.

SanDisk makes an Wi-Fi/256MB combo SD card. The compatibility list says it won't work for Zire 71, but I was wondering if anyone has tried it with a Zire 72 yet. This would add so much functionality to the 72.
If this particular card doesn't work, is there any other card out there that will, Wi-Fi only or a combo like the SanDisk one?
Its just a shame that after spending $300 for a handheld, I have to spend >$100 just for Wi-Fi. That borders on the cost of a cheap laptop.
