Title: Wifi Range On The Sl-6000l
Post by: mdanehart on June 22, 2006, 09:47:25 pm
I enjoy my Dell X51V and the excellent wifi range and bluetooth.   But I have a chance to purchase the Sharp 6000L. How is the wifi radio range on this model?
I wish I had them both to do a A/B comparison test..

The Z has about the same range.  I couldn't send my X51V back fast enough.

Thanks Barry:  You own a C-3100 know? Did you dump the 6000?

Yea, I sold the 6000, got the dell.  Tried to use it for about 2 weeks.  Got my money back and e-bay'd the 3100.

the only issue with 6000's wifi is that it's USB based and doesn't work with WPA... but you can always use a CF wifi card in that case!
