Guest McHale Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Motorola isn't releasing any WiFi drivers ever (unless of course they make a WiFi card of their own). Motorola will be making their future phones SDIO NOW! compatible. The manufacturers of the WiFi cards need to release the drivers for their cards and they say they are on the way (for those phones that AREN'T SDIO NOW! compatible). If your phone is SDIO NOW! compatible, you don't NEED drivers. -Mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest the loc-man Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 is the E200 SDIO? is it SDIO NOW! or will it need drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest th3_glove20 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 buddy im using O2 xphone...do u think is compatible for me to use it...??? Is there any driver compatible for my spv..?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest McHale Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 the e200 supports SDIO but it requires drivers. So the manufacturer of the SD WIFI card will need to make smartphone SD drivers. From what I understand, they are all working on it. No idea why it's taking so long, they told us a LONG time ago they were working on it. I think the Samsung i600 is SDIO Now and the latest pocket pc phone's are SDIO now though... -Mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest McHale Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 word is moto are releasing there own wifi card. I had heard that to but what I was told was that it was going to be a mini-SD WIFI card to sell as the "available option" for the MPx100 and MPx220. If you recall in the very early MPx100 and MPx220 literature, it listed all the junk and somewhere in it it listed WiFi as an available option. This is it. But this doesn't mean there will actually be smartphone drivers for it. There have been SD wifi cards for a while now (all are Prism). They will work in any device that supports SDIO NOW!. There's no reason to believe that the mini-SD cards will have smartphone drivers until there are drivers for the current SD cards. If the makers of our beloved smartphones would incorporate SDIO NOW! into their OS, we wouldn't be having this discussion. :D If you can find the link for the Motorola card, I'd be very interested in seeing it. I had heard it from a buddy who works for Motorola but hadn't seen anything official on it. -Mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest th3_glove20 Posted July 3, 2004 Report Share Posted July 3, 2004 damn...which means we have to wait till they release the driver...Wow that may take ages...Can we do anything to inform them that we need the driver for our phone...?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dog Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Will this one not work with my almost-out-of-date xphone? :? Or am I just hopelessly behind the curve on the latest technology available? :) http://www.sandisk.com/retail/256mb-wifi-sd.asp OS support for: • PDA - PocketPC 2002, PocketPC 2003, Windows Mobile 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest McHale Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 in case anyone cares, I have confirmed with Motorola that there will be NO WiFi for the MPx220. Now of course, if a 3rd party developed a mini-SD WI-FI card and drivers, it would work. But Motorola was offering a WiFi add-on for the MPx100 (according to their press release) but this is NOT the case with the MPx220. "The MPx220 will not offer a WiFi add-on. Thanks, Monica" (as in Monica Rohleder - the same Monica from the press release). This was after a long "whose on first" question/answer scenario where she explained that the MPx has it built in. -sigh- -Mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maverick Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 This SD WiFi thing has been going on for ages !! Ever since I bought the "Original" SPV a long long time ago, Sandisk have been saying they will come out with the drivers. Never mind that there have been 3 releases of the underlying Operating System ( Wm2k2, Wm2k3, Wm2k3 SE) between then and now !! Gives me the impression that its far easier to build an OS and send a man to Mars than to build a driver. So by the time, they DO release the drivers, it will probably be out dated anyway !!
