Most SDIO-equipped Pocket PCs running Pocket PC 2002 to Windows Mobile 5.0 should be able to use it, but there is a catch (well, make that two). You'll need an external battery pack to operate the card, and to complicate matters, audio will function as a separate component (in other words, the card is incapable of re-routing audio through the Pocket PC's sound system). Otherwise, everything else is just fine and dandy. :)

"in other words, the card is incapable of re-routing audio through the Pocket PC's sound system"

Still doesnt matter..TV quality is more neccessary

But the thing about external battery pack looks 'eldritch' to me.

**funny..company shouldnt use the magician's small screen in their advertisement
ipaq 4700 or X51V should suit it better :wink:
