802.11B With Jornada 525

I was wondering if anyone has tried to access a wireless network with their 525. Just doing some research before I plop down $100 for the CF card. Thanks!:D

i tried using the netgear 801.11b with my jornada 525, and even though it worked it was INCREDIBLY slow, and hence very frustrating. browsing was not the only issue either; the screen is (obviously) too small to support normal web browsing, so you have to scroll sideways to read a page sometimes, and it took forever to load pages, and the processor couldn't always keep up enough to support smooth scrolling left to right, vice versa. i eventually took the CF card back to the store and gave up.
personally, i would suggest that you put that cash towards a new pda that can handle all that a wireless connection is capable of providing. i updated to the toshiba e740 (wanted built in wi-fi, as using that CF card was sort of annoying, as it was like an unwanted appendage on an otherwise streamline handheld), and it was totally worth it.
