WM 5 Driver for Pretec Smartcam

Thank you to Aximsite for this forum.

I have a Dell Axim x51v, with Windows Mobile 5.

Has anybody here ever heard of the Pretec SDIO Smartcam 1.3Mp? It is a small camera that fits into the SD card slot of pocket computers. Problem is, the driver included with the camera is not compatible with Windows Mobile. Why, if this camera is made for the later SD card slots, is its driver for cameras that had only the CF card slots? Can anybody tell me where I can find the driver for this, in Windows Mobile 5?

Seems Pretec did not make a driver for Windows Mobile 5, only Windows Mobile 2003.

You are welcome to give that a try.

The download page for drivers is found here. Look at "SD Camera".

Thank you for your reply, Johnhu. If I hadn't been visiting Aximsite, I wouldn't have noticed this reply. I did not receive any email notice of thread replies, as I would with forums like this.

I have tried the Windows Mobile 2003 many times over the year with no luck. From my recollection, it usually won't even install. If you have any connections to the Pretec people or with PPC software developers, could you please encourage someone to convert the 2003 software to Mobile 5? I bet it would be very easy to do, possibly as simple as changing the installation software.

Wonder why they would make only 2003 software when most of those ppcs and pdas did not even have SD card slots for this SD card product.
