Best Wifi card for my Axim

I am looking to purchase a wifi card for my dell axim to connect to my 2wire wireless router. I am wondering if anyone can lead me in the right direction as to which one would be the best and work properly on my pda. I am now currently running pc 2002 on my Axim.

From the WiFi FAQ: Can anyone suggest a CF card for my Axim X5?

I use the ambicom card on my X5 (wm03). I looked at their drivers page and they list them for the 2002 os also. I have not used any others to compare to, but it works great for me. The FAQ is also where I started when I was looking into wifi.

I bought a SD Wireless card model SDW11G by SDIO Wireless for my Axim x5. In researching this site to figure out how to use it I came to this:
Will SD WiFi work?

Not on the Axim X5. WiFi SD cards require the SD to be I/O compliant (secure digital input/output) and that feature is not enabled on the X5. The newer Axim models (X3 series, X30 series and X50 series) are SDIO complient. Of course, many of these have integrated WiFi so a WiFi SD card would be superfluous.

Is this talking about what I am trying to use?

Yep, that what it's talking about. You'll need to replace the sd card with a CF version to use WiFi on your X5.
