Default Sandisk WiFi Driver Updates

Sandisk has released updates to both their WiFi CF and SDIO cards. You can now get Windows Mobile 2003 drivers for both CF cards (the one with memory uses this driver), and the Windows Mobile 2003 drivers for the SDIO card has been updated as of October, 10. No information on what the SDIO driver update contains, and strangely, it only appears on the product information page, not in the drivers section where you'd expect it to be.

Unfortunately, most Toshibas don't have the bSquare drivers needed for full SDIO functionality. I'm not sure about their WM2003 units, though.

The WiFi CF driver appears to be the same one released on 9/3/03 but the file is a different size. Does anyone know if this is a newer version or is it the same driver already released? Sure would be nice if SanDisk put a release date on the download page.

Default doesn't work

Sorry to disappoint you all, but I just tested on the supposedly "new" drivers. They aren't new. The memory problem still exists. WiFi works, but the 128MB memory is broken still.

Seems like Sandisk tends to have quite a bit of trouble with their cards. I know Socket makes an SD based WiFi card.

Does anyone know which one is better? Sandisk or Socket?
