nope, the e10 isnt sdio compatable, which means, no wifi card will work.

that isn't what i wanted to hear;)

so, guess i'll have to try and sell it, how much do you reckon its worth?

and as i'm in the market for a new one, with wifi capabilities, which is the best? Should i stick with Toshiba

thanks

The e310 is now obsolete so unfortunately isn't worth all that much on the market at all. Especially if you've already had it for a few years and the batterylife isn't all that long.

I'm not 100% it isn't SD/IO compatible... hmm

I'm using the e310 now but i'm a bit IPAQ fan. Their 2215 is probably the cheaper alternative to a device that has wi-fi integrated. But shop around... the Dell x3i and others also make great budget models these days.

Jorgen Sundgot claims it has a SDIO slot http://www.infosync.no/show.php?id=2262 - he usually knows what he is talking about.

While Jorgen Sundgot may have stated that the e310 has an SDIO capable slot, there was never a ROM udate for the device that included BSquare's SDIO Now! software and driver to the unit.

Hence, no current SDIO WLAN card on the market will work with this device. :cry:

Thanks - I live and learn!

Is there a list of supported (or of unsupported) PDA's somewhere?

Jorgen,

Actually there is. If you go to Socket's SDIO compatibility Matrix ( for WLAN or Bluetooth cards ), they have a pretty good rundown of current devices that will work, and won't. Since Socket, Sandisk and Viewsonic SDIO products all come from Sychip, I would think you could use this as a guide of any of the three companies SDIO products, although software tweaking may be different with each vendors end products.

Here's the link ( in pdf )...
