Default What is faster ? 512 CF or WiFi

I have a wifi setup at home, and I use it mostly for scumm games and playing movies on my ipaq.
There is nothing else wifi, so the ipaq gets it's max bandwidth through it.
I recently started playing the 3rd monkey island game, but it's unbearable over wifi, and due to my 128mb sd, I dont have enough space to even put cd1 on it.
I had to get my laptop hooked up again, but it's a drag since I basicaly got the Ipaq to replace my laptop.
Would getting a bigger memcard and putting it on this card speed up the game to a playable level or would I just stick to the wifi way I am using now.
Would a microdrive make a difference, or something??
if a CF would be suggested, would it pay off to get a highspeed sandisk one instead of another for accessing big files ( also thinking about playstation images in the back of my head) or will it be limited by cpu power or mem controller bandwidth?

Any idea's?

You might find this thread of some use to you; http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/foru...81117eff1e0b14

Basically if you want speed stay away from the Sandisk cards. Look at Simpletech, Panasonic or Lexar
