Default $40 Off Socket Wi-Fi CF Cards

http://www.socketcom.com/wmwep/WLAN27112.pdf

Until the end of this year, you can save $40 via mail-in rebate on a Socket Wi-Fi CF card. From MobilePlanet, this means you can get the card for $99.95 after rebate. That's an awesome price for this card. 8) [Affiliate]

I have the Symbol version (same physical card) but using the Socket 2003 drivers on my 2210 and I agree that it is a great card.

So you're using the Symbol Card with the Socket Drivers on your 2215? and it works? Any setup or anything you need to do, or is it just liket he socket card, and you just pop the card in? Thanks..

Oh, and by the way, speaking of WiFi cards, has anyone heard of any WCF11 drivers for WM2003 coming out? Thanks..

I also have a socket card, and it is truly amazing, and very simple setup with my 2215!

They are the exactly the same physical device. To use the Symbol card with the Socket drivers, you need only make sure the 2002 drivers are NOT installed. Just install the drivers and then pop the card in

Hmm well then I guess I did break my Symbol card.. A while back I turned off my 3850 with my CF expansion pack plus and my symbol card in it while on AIM and when I turned it back on, the card didn't work, and hasn't since. It still doesn't recognize the card when I put it in my 2215, so I guess it's just a dud now... Thanks for the reply, at least I have a socket card lol

I agree that this is a great card. I bought mine from amazon for $139. But I used the $40 rebate and there was free shipping. I also had a $25 gift card I got from work. I had sold my linksys card (I got it as a gift) for $50 on ebay. So I paid 24 dollars for this card

I thought that this was a great card as well until it stopped working 8 months after I purchased it. I have been trying since June to have it repaired under warranty without success. I have e-mailed tech support 6 times, and left numerous messages on their tech support line (you can not speak to anyone). I have received no response.

Think twice before you purchase a Socket Comm. product. You'll be screwed if it breaks.
