Hi, I am a newbie, but have convinced the girlfriend to buy me a 3955 for Christmas. What I want my PDA to do beyond Organization is the following:

1) Surf the internet using my Linksys Wireless Router here at Home.

2) Have lots of CF storage so I can transfer my digital camera pictures to the IPAQ for viewing.

3) Have enough battery power for a day.

I am not wild on the SD card slot because of price but now I am scared it is my only option for extra storage/memory. If I go with the Expansion Pack CF Plus.

Here is my thinking:

I would use a Linksys CF Wireless Card in the Expansion Plus Sleeve.

I would have the extra battery with the sleeve.

However, if I want to look at pictures or access files on another CF card I will have to switch cards and not have Internet Access.

Therefore, if I am in this situation I would need to have an SD card.

Is there a better solution that I am overlooking for my needs?

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Stormtrooper

Has anyone reported any problems with Nexiams Dual CF card and battery adapter? I am hesitant to use a non-compaq accessory. However, if the general consensus is that it is ok...then great.
