According to this review:

It seems that my dreams come true because Pocket PC Thoughts reported now about the first SD Camera which works - according to "expansys.com" - also with Pocket PCs:

Spectec SD Camera for PPC and Palm

Superb SD camera that works in Pocket PC and Palm OS devices - the drivers are already installed on the card.

WILL THIS WORK ON MY XDA/PPC PHONE EDITION??

I would love to have a cam for my xda....

Will it work? Nope. Unless I'm mistaken, the XDA doesn't have SDIO support.

Is there anyway to upgrade the XDA from sd to sdio?

is this something that can maybe be software upgraded?

[vybe23]

Also found this...Looks like the ipaq ppc had a rom update to enable SDIO...hopefully this is something we can expect for the XDA????

for the original spectec camera question i posted...they said drivers are loaded on the sd camera..does this make a difference? will it work on a sd slot because drivers are loaded?

Heres the info about the rom update to support sdio for the device below..

It doesn't, unfortunately, which is what kept me from getting it... You never know when the IO part will come in handy.
