Okay, here's the problem I'm having. I purchased the SanDisk ConnectPlus WiFi/128Mb card, and stuck it in my Axim. I'm running WM2003. Before installing the driver, I updated the CFTiming from Dell's site. I then installed the WM2003 driver. Now, after a soft reset, the card works fine. I can access the WiFi and memory features. However, when I turn the unit off, neither feature of the card is available. A soft reset will fix this, however, when I come back up, the memory on the card is unreadable unless I format it. As you can imagine, this sucks with great vigor. If you can help, I would be grateful.

So I spoke to SanDisk...they said that they know the card doesn't work with the Axim X5, and to return the card and get a WiFi-only card. I then spoke to Dell, and got some outsourced Indian guy, who refused to help me because I wasn't the original owner of the device. (I purchased it from a former co-worker, whose name I have forgotten. Well, his name was Mike, but beyond that, I have no idea)

Someone wanna call Dell, and see if they can get someone who speaks English natively?

When you call Dell and you ear a transfer click sound follow by a delay in the ringing, you have just made a quick leap to India. Welcome to the real world...

I bought a sandisk connectplus 128mb - could only get it to work intermittently - just found this review which basically says I threw my money away on the darn thing http://tuxtops.com/?q=node/185 ...and a looksee at sandisk tells me to return it to where I bought it - I can't, as since none of the local stores are selling wifi CF cards, I bought it off ebay - can get my $ back for it but shipping costs for this tiny thing were exhorbitant and the seller won't refund those costs, so it's cheaper for me to give it away than try to get him to be a nice person about the whole thing...
