A little help with my PDA please

[Mediaman15775]

I am looking at buying a HP H4150 PDA from someone on eBay as a treat for the wife.


The thing i was wanting to know is it's got Integrated WLAN 802.11b, Bluetooth, IrDA

What other bit of kit would i need for my wife to send and receive emails i have a Imac
and a Cable modem running at 3mb

Here is the product spec page of the pda

Sorry if this all seems a bit thrown together im not that clued up on wirless stuff
If you could shed some light on this that would be great :please:

you would need an airport card for the iMac, that's all. I've tried the D-Link USB Wireless stick but it keeps dropping the connection and crashing the Mac (OS X 10.3.3 & latest drivers). The only wireless I would now trust on the mac is the official apple ones. Bluetooth may work but I've not tried it on my PC or mac yet (even though I have a dongle on both).
I use my iPAQ (2210) wirelessly with the PC at home and it works fine for email, browsing & messenger (also works fine with my T610 mobile using GPRS)

So once i install the airport card thats all i was told by someone on ebay i would need routers or something


Thanks for your help bud :wavey:

That's all you need for your PDA to connect to your PC you will be able to set it up to send and receive emails as long as you are near your pc. If you want to send emails on the road you will need a GPRS phone with Bluetooth. The routers have more to do with your internet connection to the desktop and as such have little bearing on the PDA. By the way I just got one of these for someone at work, they are in my opinion the best PDA I have seen.
