Dell offers one, but for $300, I can think of MUCH better things I'd want to spend my money on...
A hard shell case... ($35.00)
An external battery pack... ($130.00)
1Gb SD card ($150.00)
If you REALLY want this card, go for it - it comes with the software, adds a very nice level of functionality to your PDA, and can keep you from getting yourself so lost you beg a homeless person for directions only to wind up in a dark alley a week later, naked, sore, and painted green... :blink:
I'd HIGHLY suggest finding a hardshell case you can fit the SDIO GPS unit into when it's NOT in the Dell, and another hardshell case that will protect it while it IS in the Dell.
Because all it'll take is one wrong bump, and your $300 card is a worthless pile of shattered plastic at your feet, soaking in a puddle of your anguished tears... :cry: *argh*
But, then again, I've just purchased a custom built case for my X30 from a local metal shop... They're going to build it out of a steel plate, pad it with the foam normally used to cushion ballistic body armor vests, and paint it all a nice glossy black with a BioHazzard logo on the face.
It'll cost me nearly $300, but I figure it's a MUCH better investment than the SDIO GPRS card...
One is a nice-to-have toy, the other is a "Keeping my $400 PDA from getting beaten into a rather expensive pile of scrap" kind of investment... B)
