RE: OT- Dell AXIM wireless network card

["Alistair Watkins" <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

yeah,
I have one of those in my PDA that i use for my home remote control... only
problem i have is when i put it down, if the card touches anything it
looses
a connection and i have to take it out and reboot the pda and start
again...
dunno if its aproblem with the card of the PDA, but its a cracking little
device, with a pretty good range... my PC (with external ant) gets about
60%
signal, while the PDA is still on 100! it goes way out of my house, and i
can still get a decent signal over at the station... kinda scary !

^mad^
