Question ID: 262935
iPaq seems to have a special data bus and a cable. I suppose the cable
connects from USB to the iPaq data port. Am I correct? (I do not have
the iPaq yet)

The question is how to make iPaq wireless? Can the cable connect to
the wireless ethernet card and connect to the local network, for
example? Or iPaq can connect to another PC only instead of directly to
a network?
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Depending on which iPaq model you use, there is a Wireless Lan CF1
(CompactFlash Type 1) card that slides in a slot on the back. You can
access in peer-to-peer and ad-hoc mode, so it will work in any
wireless network environment. It uses a lot of battery power, so there
is also a Dual CompactFlash slot card that provides its own power to a
card slot. Anyway, a new Wireless card is about $140, but I'm sure you
can find used ones...just make sure your model is compatible.
