I’m thinking of buying my first PDA and wanted to know if I can slot another WiFi card into whichever product I buy (obviously it will have an upgrade slot). If the PDA has an integrated card can I switch between that and my card? Has anyone done this before or have any info on the subject? Cheers

This is the card I’d like to use it’s a modified Orinoco Classic GOLD Card

This is the result I am after

These are the ones I’m looking at in order or preference
Asus MyPal A716 PDA
IPAQ 5550
Ipaq h6340
Dell x50v
hx2410
iPAQ hx4705
HP 4150

/edit/ just saw this Asus MyPal A716 PDA (seems to have a good battery life)
Or if anyone has a better option, any pointers would be much appreciated.

Youch. Pulling that thing out is sure to get a few heads turning.

Most new Pocket PCs have Wi-Fi built-in, and if not, SD Wi-Fi cards or CF Wi-Fi cards are by far a better option. Have you considered those?
