Connect Plus Low Power Wi-Fi Card with 128 MB
This is for the handhelds usergroup people. The
first thing I can say for sure is that the reception is better than my old
Belkin Wifi card AND it's not so wide that it impedes the audio jack on my iPAQ
h2210. My only fear is that this is not so low-power, but I'll have to see.
There are a couple of key features that make this a good card:
supported by MiniStumbler for wardriving
seems to have great reception (at a cost?)
For
29.99 (coupon code: Techbargains)
at
Surplus
Computer with free shipping, it's a decent deal for casual use. The included PC Card adapter and
128 MB of flash memory are bonuses. Comes with a 90-day warranty.
Note:
There's no WPA support, so if you're concerned with privacy, you'll
have to be extra careful. There also doesn't seem to be a 'Flight Mode'
to turn off the radio without unplugging the card (*or using PocketWarrior). Drivers for PPC
2002/2003 available here.
