Part of this is the lack of a significant performance boost (a fact that we'll talk about later) but part of it is also issues of implementation. Just Mobile, at least, seems to have no trouble with the latter...I can't think of any reason not to recommend the Just Mobile Wi-Fi card if you're in the market. Despite the small market these days for SDIO Wi-Fi, it manages to be a stand-out product for more than just its rarity."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/westfall-5584.jpg" /><br /><br />If you had told me, around 2 years ago, that we'd still have Windows Mobile devices ship without WiFi, I would have had you committed. Thankfully you didn't tell me that and didn't sit in a psychiatric hospital needlessly! If you're with a device you love but don't have the WiFi you yearn for, check out the latest line of SDIO cards. I particularly like the low-profile!
