Tapwave Zodiac News: Special Report: News from NEPUG

Some really cool stuff here...

Tapland - Tapwave Zodiac News: Special Report: News from NEPUG: "Accessories
Several slides contained pictures of different accessories for the Zodiac. The TomTom Navigator Bluetooth GPS unit was cited as an example of a GPS navigation solution, however it was not 'a product announcement.' The PowerPlay Grip was also shown in the same slide and David announced that this accessory should be available this fall along with several new cases and a car charging solution. David was very open in discussing the difficulties caused by the much-maligned Zodiac connector. The connector was apparently to blame for the ten month delay in getting the international charger to market as well as holding up other charging solutions that are expected this fall, though he claimed to be unaware of the detailed reasons behind the delays.

WiFi
One of the most exciting slides shown during the presentation was a picture of a WiFi SDIO card made by the C-Guys. David said that he has personally witnessed Tapwave's working WiFi solution, noting that a few bugs still needed to be worked out, and indicated that it should be available to consumers within thirty to forty-five days. SanDisk was also mentioned as a potential developer and manufacturer for a Zodiac WiFi card and driver."
