Does any body have the
WL110? Is it any different than the WL100?

Why would you want it?

It has less range according to the specs, you may not be able to use it in a laptop or a PPC like the WL100.

The WL100 at least has the intel prowireless drivers.

The WL110 is Sony made now, and you should know how forthcomming they are with info and drivers.

Oh, very good then! The WL110 has two lights instead of one, the driver seems to be the same. The WL100 is a good card, just that the Clie doesn't do it justice, but works great in a laptop, so the card is quite capable. AFAIK, the major difference is that Sony is making it's own and haven't heard anything else, yet. Sure I am curious too, you'd think someone would talking about it by now, so who knows :).

I just got my WL110 from amazon.com and got it up and running last night.

I have a Linksys WAP11 and live in a two story house. I have the Linksys in an upstairs bedroom and can I can go anywhere in the house with my NX60 and keep a connection. I can even go to the basement and roam in the yard.

I have the Linksys configured to use a WEP key, which I understand can slow things a bit. I am using NetFront and Avangto to surf the internet, and ClieMail for syncing with my attbi.com e-mail. It's pretty cool.

Being pretty new to wireless and the NX60, I don't really have any reference.

If there is some specific test I can perform to check the quality of the WL110 let me know.
