Interesting, the iPaq is not supported...

Nor the XDA II.

I imagined thosw ill come online quickly (hopefully).

It looks like they're pretty clear about the cards they do and don't support.

When and if additional devices are supported, they will be added to this list. Until that time, do not assume support for any devices not mentioned above.
I wonder what the holdup is. I thought all SDIO Now! capable devices should have SDIO peripherals that are interchangeable with one another.

Indeed - that's what I find really disturbing about this. Unless this is because the product is based on bSquare's SDIONow! project and not compatible with other SDIO slots? Aughh....SO fustrating! :evil:

[T-Will]

Do those Pocket PCs use a graphics accelerator?

Is SDIONow! a software/firmware upgrade or is it a hardware thing?

On the iPAQ website there is ref to the Margi Presenter-to-Go application on the included CD


I think this references the s/w and not the h/w.
