Lately, there's been news here and there about various WiFi cards coming for Secure Digital slots. Does anyone know about this stuff? I'm anxious to surf untethered, but I like having my Microdrive in the Compact Flash slot. So if I got a CF WiFi card, I'd also have to buy some SD memory which would get pretty expensive.

One of the neat things I've seen is that some companies are working on combo cards for SD which will have both extra Flash memory AND a WiFi component. Beyond actually getting something like this, I'd also be pretty concerned about software support for it.

How far away do you folks think something like this would be? Weeks? Months? Years? Gadget junkies want to know!
