RC1 drivers work fine. Been using it for a few days now.

Just for a check, do the RC1 drivers install the configuration applet? I don't have it on mine, I was wondering how to enable low power mode on the card.

Overall the drivers behave well on WM2003, the zero-config is nice

I tried it right away - and I must say I'm impressed. 8)

I had always wondered why MS claimed that WiFi was integrated into PPC2003 when the MA701 seemed to be hardly integrated in the OS at all. But with the PPC2003 driver, the integration really is seamless!

Cool!

Your right. There is no control over power or anything other than WEP. It would have been nice if they had included the ping utility and the wifi rescan utility too!

Thanks for saving me the re-install. I had to edit the registry to delete the PocketPC dsivers I accidentally installed. Thought I might have goofed something.
