Guest Tech Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 an update of what? ;) C550 or any smartphone for that matter can have a wifi miniSD card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mini_man Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 I read that it didnt work? I was thinking of an update to make the phone compatible with the card so the phone will recieve wifi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tech Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 not as far as I know - it probably needs drivers or something like that which should be bundled with the hardware device ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mini_man Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 You just said it works though? C550 or any smartphone for that matter can have a wifi miniSD card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tech Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 (edited) no no - you mis understood ;) from what I read - you can use almost any SD/miniSD wifi card which fits into your smartphone - wether this is true or not I am not sure but have heard that it works fine for C500 - and C550 is just a "facelift" for a C500 so pretty much it generally should work I believe - again dont quote me on this. if the hardware is there, and the software/drivers are bundled - no reason really on why it should not work ;) Edited March 4, 2006 by Tech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mini_man Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Ok i get you, they have to release some drivers soon dont they? so many people would use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tech Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 that is correct, but I would assume that the drivers/software would be bundled WITH the miniSD wifi device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 BIIIIG problem - where will the tiny wee antenna go that pokes out the top of the WiFi card? There isn't any room with it being an internal mini-SD slot. This would never be a problem with devices like the E200 which left the antenna poking out the side of the device ;) And... does the 550 have an SDIO cpacity?
