Aximsitewifiicon X51 versus x51v?

According to the Dell Axim X51/X51v owner's manual:
Mid and High configurations of the Axim have Wi-Fi 802.11b built in and the drivers factory installed. For a Low configuration device, you must purchase the 802.11 SD card, insert it in your device, and load the drivers.
How does one know the difference between a Mid/High and Low device? Is the "v" designation the difference, or is there some other esoteric information one uses to tell the difference?

I ask because while surfing for X51 devices on eBay, some say they have Wi-Fi and others don't. I bought an X51 today and wonder if I shouldn't also buy an SD card while I'm at it.

...I've decided to retire my old X5.

Never mind, I found my answer by continuing to surf the forums here:

IDK for sure, but if its an x51 mid or low, meaning not a x51v, then possibly.
