I have a Treo 700w, WM5. It has bluetooth built in, but no GPS. It doesn't have built in wifi either.

I know I can get an SDIO GPS card with memory and I know I can get a wifi 802.11b sdio card with memory.

Is there an all in one solution - SIDO Device with Memory+GPS+Wifi ???

I know I could use an SDIO wifi and a bluetooth GPS device, but I was looking for everything to fit into the device.

Thanks in advance.

Not that I'm aware of, unfortunately.

That would be your best option at the moment. Squeezing a connectivity module and extra memory into the SD form factor isn't much of an issue, but squeezing two connectivity modules and extra memory is a lot harder. I think it'll be a while before we ever see an all-in-one card like that in the market.

Thanks for the reply.

I guess if I get a SDIO Wifi card with some memory and use a bluetooth GPS, then maybe I can get sometype of nice case that I can use to slide the bluetooth GPS into the case pocket to keep it near the phone for wardriving.

Yes, I've seen plenty of Filofax style cases which can fit a Pocket PC and extra accessories. If you look around office supply stores, they may have some available.

Good luck!

Hmm, if I find a small/thin bluetooth GPS device, then this case looks like it has some potential:

I had a SanDisk 256 MB WiFi Card and I just found out from them that they will not develop a driver for this card for WM5. :evil: As a result, I either have to trash this card :cry: or use it as a memory card only which is dump as it is larger than usual SD card. 8O SanDisk is a totally irresponsible company and let's boycott them. :evil:

By the way, will anyone help me to find a driver for this card to be used in WM5? :roll:

? Why would you want to keep it close? The beauty of the BT is that you can put the receiver in an appropriate location for pickup; dash, back deck, while the display is locatable where it is easily visible.

I guess I was thinking of not just war-driving, but war-walking and war-boating. I would like to keep it all together to hold in one hand.

Actually I've got a similar question (although perhaps more newbish).

I'm looking at a PDA/GPS device and most of the ones with built in GPS need the SD storage card for the maps. As they don't have wifi I'd have to get an SDIO wifi card for any net use (not my main purpose but perhaps handy), however as most of those cards don't have memory where do I store my emails etc....(as my SD memory card will have to be pulled to use the SDIO wifi card)??

You could get a GPS Pocket PC with Wi-Fi built-in. The PDA-N is an example.
