I guess you are right.

I could use the CF wifi adapter and get a pcmcia cf adapter.

The only thing is that the cf slot seems to be on the front of the device... so the stub of the cf wifi card would be on the front.

My pcmcia cards are a DWL-650+ and a Linksys 802.11g card.

I found the headset adapter thread for the 790, hopefully someone can explain that to me.


cf slot.. but that's what the pcmcia-cf adapter is for

the dlink won't work.. is the linksys a cardbus one too? if not then you have a chance, please tell me the exact model!

headset adapter.. i believe (?) you just have to buy a 2.5 mm-3.5 mm converter and that's not uncommon so no worries sorry if i'm mistaken but that's what i read here earlier

Threre's a slim chance your dlink 650 might work, if it's a pcmcia. There are several versions of the card and dlink insn'tnthe best a labelling things

All thie talk of 790s has me interested. I know the screen is smaller and the keys are bigger but how does it look with nyditot at 640x480? 800x480?

Since it's mips and hpc2k there's not much for me to figure out software wise.

Oh , does it fold into a tablet? or have usb hosting? Nice but not essential if the price is really right.
Im set in my ways. Mips for my hpcs and nothing but arm for my ppcs.Between them I can run anything.

about the dlink.. it is most likely a cardbus.. if not then there IS a chance

i couldn't try nyditot on my 900 (same screen as 790) as it froze.. (others reported success though) but i did try it on my jornadas (same res) and it wasn't too good. was fun and if needed then it was useful! but wouldn't use it for a longer period as it's too slow. of course if you enable panning it's fast then and looks good but having to scroll was too annoying for me.
all in all, nyditot is really useful when you absolutely need the bigger res for some task but it is not for everyday use.

790 has no usb host and no support for tablet mode but i think it can be opened fully in 180 and you can change the screen orientation in 180 as well at least the 900 is able to do that and i believe the 790 can do it too. very cool. (tablet mode would be even more cool though.)

what kind of hpc are you seeking and why? you already wanted a HC300 etc.. so?
