Socket Go Wi-fi! P500
« on: August 04, 2006, 04:57:57 pm »
Can anyone confirm that "Socket Go Wi-Fi! P500" 802.11 b/g works with C3200 ?

Don't want to spend the money without making sure it works.

Thank you
Tomas

This is an info from Embwise:

We have the Socket P500 CF-WLAN Linux driver tested and validated on the
Zaurus SL-C3000 PDA,apart from other Host processor Development
hardware.However,the driver is not opensource and we are authorized to
provide the driver only in Binary.We license the binary driver to
customers.We ofcourse can do the build for any Linux kernel
versions/releases and test,before we ship the driver.

The main problem is that they are only interested in selling this to the manufacturers and there is NO chance that Sharp will buy this from them.
