There is BT, but no WiFi? Every other memory card format has one or will soon have one. You go to memorystick.org and nuthin' seems to be going on. :confused:

Probably because Sony already has a WiFi CF card.

Which works with 10% of their Clie models versus the 90% that have MS?? I don't understand Sony's proprietary and random approach to peripherals.

Sony also has the bad practice of releasing new PDA's far too close to eachother. They just don't make sense some times.

I just spoke with some one at Brando. And he told me that there is a Japanese version of a WiFi MS. Thay can get them for 139.00US. I'm ordering one, anyone who wants in should contact Brando. He said that it has both English and Japanese drivers.

Unless Brando is pulling my leg.

That would be nice if it were true.

But I have a couple of friends that go to Japan frequently (several times a year) and they have not seen or heard anything about this. One of them even works for Sony.

If you find out anything more, I would really like to hear about it.

It does seem like so much was promised with the Memory Stick, and so little delivered. Kinda disappointing. :(

?

They released the Bluetooth, GPS, and Digital Camera Memory Sticks as promised -- or are there any other promises that we don't know about? ;)

Seriously, I think you have mistaken, Brando's page did not mention anything about a MS WiFi card, please make sure you are reading the right thing!

Ididn't see it on the website. I just emailed. But you are right they misunderstood me. They have a CF wifi card. Don't that just beat all.
