RE: Seems like a real breakthrough!
"Real time" wireless access to files on a PC from a PDA was demo'ed over ten years ago with the early Xerox PARC PDAs and even with a demo running on the first year of the Newton.
Bottom line. You have a good product but there is way too much prior art to try to claim a patent here.

You are overlooking how far the wireless connection may be.
* Bluetooth to PC (from ~30 meters away).
* WiFi to PC (from ~100 meters away).
* WiFi to local area network to PC (from anywhere in the company/campus).
* WiFi to Internet to local area network to PC (from any WiFi hotspot).
* Bluetooth to cell phone to Internet to local area network to PC (from anywhere you have digital cell service).
Will it work with a treo 650 i.e. no WiFi/BT to server pc?

*sigh* Here I go again...
Is there a Mac version?

Clarity, man!
Won't work on OS6 IMHO
actually I was expecting something like this to happen for quite some time now. The PalmOs VFS architecture always allowed third parties to add a VFS slot driver and a File System library-too bad that this is said to be missing in OS6.
BTW, when does somethzing like this come out that supports regular FTP, WEBDAV and Windows SMB shares...

A minor bug was discovered during final testing. We are working diligently to resolve it.

"Sounds like they sent out the press release a wee bit too early."
Maybe they should make a Springboard version of this.

Press release: CUPERTINO, California — February 11, 2005 — Apple® announced today that Steve Jobs will begin selling his own feces to Apple Cultists beginning March 1. Apple's new iPoo™ lineup is expected to easily surpass the iPod shuffle as the company's most popular product. Yes, Apple Cultists can already easily create their own iPoo™, but feces didn't seem cool until Jobs told them it was cool. Remember, kids: the ONLY cool feces is Jobs' highly individualistic, rebellious iPoo™ (coming soon in six different colors/flavors, including the red [hematochezia] and black [melena] U2 GI bleed model)

Is that a similar software can do exactly the same thing ?
Can someone try it out and let use know ?

RE: Is that a similar software can do exactly the same thing
It seems to have one major problem though in that it detects and connects fine to my laptop & it's shares. The card shows up fine but the T3 is not able to read the card.
It just asks 'Do you want to format the card' and actually never mounts it.
It shows up in Card Info as a network storage with an unknown size and format.
RE: Is that a similar software can do exactly the same thing ?
Just wondering if you ever figured out what was causing wifigenie to want to format the folder. I have the same problem I've sent numerous emails to Wifigenie support, at first they seemed to want to help then they quit answering all together. finally they offered my money back or asked that I wait two weeks. They stated that they were having problems with the small packet size and was working on it. Anyway, I use Explorer and really want for this to work. I wasnt sure if it was my setup or WiFiGenie.
TIA
