RE: On an SSS?
It beats the alternative of being out and about with no access at all, and I am amazed how many un-encrypted access points are cropping up.
What I don't understand about the folks that make this Enfora case - Why don't they try to package this thing in a more portable enclosure? Something like a cigarette pack-size (maybe thinner) enclosure that could clip onto the back of a PDA - you only bring it our when you need it.
RE: On an SSS?
Nothing on the web that is designed for 800*600 is going to work well on any PDA screen, but I found it worked good enough for sites like e-bay, superpages, google news, palm infocenter :) and a lot of the Other pages out there. I can even log in to trade stocks and check my bank balance. Not too bad in a pinch.
Besides that, WiFi isn't just meant to browse the web with. What about e-mail? Wireless syncing? Wireless updating of Avantgo? The list goes on. There's even programs out there that let you use your camera & wifi enabled PDA as a wireless web cam.

RE: On an SSS?
I was actually one mouse click away from purchasing the Axim, had signed up for Dell's credit (to get 6 months same as cash).
When I saw the T-C for just $50 more, and realized how much more I would save on existing accessories and Palm software I purchased, I just couldn't go through with getting the Axim (add to that the fact that many users were complaining on Aximsite that alarms were not working, any PDA I buy HAS to have functioning alarms).
I think the Axim is a great deal in terms of the hardware you get for $250. If I could get that hardware running Palm OS I would be all over it.
I never thought I would like the T-C when it first came out, but it is actually a treat to use, although I would rather have the T-3's screen and no keyboard...
RE: On an SSS?
Before the Axim I used to browse the web using a T|T. The point of the Axim is the landscape mode which makes text readin much easier. You actually want the text bigger than what 320x320 could give you, and preferably landscape. IMHO.
Cheers!
A bit expensive, isn't it?

Get used to the Small Square Screen guys. That's the way PDAs were born guys.
Intel PXA27X, Motorola's ARM Processor, or Texas Instruments OMAP? Pick one Palm Enthusiasts, the choice should be yours. When handheld makers make you choose the ARM Processor, you win.
RE: On an SSS?
Let's say I bought a TE when they were first introduced. At the time, all I thought palms were good for was PIM, but now that I've discoved how much more they can actually do, I want to add wireless. The Bluetooth SD card doesnt work. The wifi SD card doesnt work. I don't have a universal conector. My connection options were limited to IR.
So along comes Enfora, and suddenly, I have wifi. Considering that the Enfora case is the only way to add wifi to a palm, adding support for one of the most popular models is a good thing.

>I haven't seen one on sale in AGES! Are they
>even being made?!
I don't know about being made, but my local Office Max has the Tungsten C for... I don't remember how much they are, but they definitely have one on display and sell them.
RE: On an SSS?
God Almighty, what an idiotic statement. Are you still doing it in your diapers? After all, you were *born* that way.
RE: On an SSS?
I have a feeling they aren't making them anymore, but there appears to be zillions of them in the pipeline. My guess is, that Palm will introduce a replacement for the C in the next 6 months.
The great thing about the C (if you can stomach the keyboard), is that its specs. are very good, even though it is nearing 2 years of age, and $300 for a PDA like this is an excellent bargain. 64 MB RAM (51 useable), built-in wi-fi and great battey life.
At least the Enfora works!
