OTOH, a microSD card extender wire should be possible - a think printed wire. For RF, this is tricky, but for SD speeds, it should be fine. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Sorry, it will be behind the battery, so an USB hub with battery power and an USB WiFi Adapter will be an alternative Of course WiFi is interesting, but I see it as advantage to concentrate on Bluetooth solutions first. Bluetooth with a free hackable phone will have general wireless networking potential as well ;) Greetings, rob ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Position of u-SD slot?
I'm interested in making use of the u-SD slot with a card much like the Spectec microSDIO WiFi 11g Card, but one developed "in house" for more general wireless networking. I assume that the u-SD slot is accessed via the back side of the device, but does anyone know if it will be behind the battery or on the side of it? Behind the battery doesn't work so well for wireless without using antenna, while beside leaves this as an option (with a minimal antenna). There is, of course, the meta question of whether or not the hardware can support such a card at all ... I really don't know the SD spec well enough yet (but that's coming sooner rather than later ;). Thanks for any thoughts or comments! - MLD ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
