Wifi card for my 700wx - Treo Forum

Is there a recommended WiFi card that I should get for my 700wx?

I've heard that they are all decent. The one specific to the Treo is good because you don't have to search the web for the drivers. However, the generic ones are generally smaller (don't stick out of the top of the sd card slot) and have more memory on them; and the drivers are generally easy to find on the interweb.

I haven't tried them myself; always thought they were too pricey for something that should have been included in the first place. I have a PPC 6800 now that has wifi in it, but the new problem is that most places now charge for wifi services (like Starbucks etc). I don't feel it's right to pay for the wifi card so I can get the 'free' wifi service that no longer is free.

Your position is quite logical but some things do not operate on logic it would seem!

I'd go for the Palm one... although it sticks out it's also $20 cheaper.
