I just got my jornada 720 that ibought on ebay for only 70 dollars! i also bought
a wireless card for ten and it works perfectly. The internet is actually really fast. im making this post on it right now. Id say 100 dollars after shipping isnt too bad for a wireless, palm sized internet browser.

The real reason for this post is i was wondering what are some good applications/games/homebrew for it?

I want one of those! Nice deal. Is it a CF or pcm-cia wireless card?
Here is a good site for free stuff (or at least the palm one is good). I think its possible to put linux on it.

Its a pcm-cia , cisco aironet 340. All the drivers are built in to the jornada so all you have to do is pop it in and it works!

It was a good deal. THe best part is that i bid on one with a cracked hinge and no sound and it was all scratched up, but they sent me one with none of those problems. I jsut got lucky i guess.

Wonder if you could use airsnort with that card.

How'd you manage to get it for only $70

Well like i said, the auction had it listed as having no sound and a cracked hinge and some big scratches, i guess that kept others from bidding more than that, but i lucked up and they sent me one in perfect condition.
