Where, oh where, are the Wireless-G CF Cards?

[DealMonkey]

Wireless-G has been around a little while now ... why no CF cards for my PDA? I find that somewhat surprising. Are they waiting for some reason to release them?

PDAs can not keep up even with 801.11b

I guess I was thinking in terms of encryption rather than speed, since B can't do WPA and G can. So now, if you want to put a B PDA on your wireless network, it's a mixed situation. What would the router do if it encountered a B adapter with WPA encryption activated? Does it fall back to WEP or something?

DealMonkey, you can do WPA TKIP on 802.11b. Not sure how well that would work on a very slow CPU, but hey.. PDAs are getting faster all the time.

Duh.....huh? Some older AP's can't, or won't be firmware upgradeable. Perhaps that's your thinking but .11b is not incapable of using WPA.
