Um, no, it doesn't. It supports WiFi cards that are supported by
Windows Mobile, but lacks onboard WiFi. Unfortunately, the third-party
vendors haven't done PalmOS drivers.

But I need data connections in lots of places WiFi doesn't cover, so I

Where did you get the idea that the 700w has it built in?

They have SDIO support. They do not have a driver. And the Palm card
