To Nation.A.list, Serwei, and Coldsun thanks for all the post. All the info your providing is helping me out alot on my decision on which to purchase. And Coldsun I look forward to the results of your test

. I have another question, just want to make sure to clear. Now for BOTH the V7 and the W1060, the WLAN 802.11 is internal, not requiring a dongle correct? Also I know for the V7 it requires a dongle for the 3G connection, which it is able to pick up EVDO and WCDMA. Would have to get a subscription with a carrier that will allow me to pick up there signal? The only two carriers that I know of in the states are Sprint and Verizon that uses these connections. Anything else like Tmobile or ATT uses GSM networks. Thanks again.

@Dvalin21

The V7 has internal 802.11b/g and Bluetooth.

The 3G dongle is not something I've used but you need a carrier subscription to access the carrier's network.

Be sure to have your supplier confirm that the dongle is compatible with the network to which you want to connect.

If the supplier is uncertain, try to get the frequencies and match them up with the ones used by your carrier. Also, try to get a money-back guarantee.

Dvalin21 · 12-04-2009, 11:45 AM

Thanks Celtica,

Now I'm assuming that its the same for the W1060? Also on their website it shows 802.11b/g/n, is this correct?

Dvalin21 · 12-04-2009, 11:50 AM

Also to Serwei,

Thanks alot for the link! Either way if it picks it up through its firmware or not I know that I will be able to install the codecs! Here is a copy of the text for the website to give everyone a quick idea of what support this application provides: http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/dl/tcpmp.html

TCPMP

The Core Pocket Media Player (TCPMP) is a software media player supporting operating systems including Windows, Windows CE, Windows Mobile, Windows Smartphone, Palm OS and Symbian OS.

TCPMP supports many audio, video, and image formats, including AC3, HE-AAC, AMR, DivX, FLAC, H.263, H.264, JPEG, Monkey's Audio, MJPEG, MPEG-1, MP2, MP3, Musepack, MS-MPEG4-v3, PNG, Speex, TIFF, TTA, Vorbis, WAV, WavPack and XviD. It supports many container formats, including 3GP, ASF, AVI, Matroska, MPEG, OGG, OGM and QuickTime. Some formats, such as H.264, require a plugin, which may hamper performance.

TCPMP began as an open source player for Windows CE and Windows Mobile called Betaplayer. In 2005 the development team ported it to the Palm OS, Windows and Symbian operating systems.

CoreCode make available a free software version, under the GNU General Public License and plan to make available a proprietary OEM version of CorePlayer. Licensable proprietary components like the directshow H.264 video codec CoreAVC are now available.

TCPMP also has hardware accelerated playback for ATI and Intel 2700g mobiles, such as the Tapwave Zodiac and Dell Axim X50v.

Yes, the Wirelession site indicates 802.11b/g/n but I don't see any mention of a dongle accessory for 3G.

I would urge caution about buying this device before confirming it will do what you want.

ColdSun may have more detail because he has worked with the device.

Kathy6699 may be another source for definitive information.

Dvalin21 · 12-04-2009, 01:31 PM

Has anyone been able to play real money poker on this device (either through no-download tables or software installed)? Does this have capabilities to remotely access your pc desktop?

cheers

Nick

ColdSun · 12-04-2009, 08:13 PM

@Ndiddly: I'll see what I can do with this during the weekend.

My guess is if it is a flash-driven site for poker it may not work. In fact, you might want something like a Netbook. On the other hand, there is a remote access application that works on WinCE. I'll see if I can find that too.

Ndiddly · 12-04-2009, 11:24 PM

Thanks Coldsun.

Well fingers crossed on both. not sure, but i think some may run on java such as this one for poker stars. http://www.partypoker.com/anywhere

thanks again!
