PalmOne verifies driver conflict
Now that the election's over, I can focus on tech stuff again. In fact, I'll probably be spending a lot more time here than Liberal Medium until my soul scars over.
First up, there were some complaints recently that loading the driver for PalmOne's new Universal Wireless Keyboard can cause a crash so severe that you can't even hard reset. Well, it turns out that the driver itself isn't at fault. There's a driver conflict between the UWK driver and PalmOne's WiFi card driver. Either by themselves are fine, but together, BAM!
There doesn't seem to be a problem with other WiFi solutions for PalmOS (Enfora, etc.), so I'd say the core problem is PalmOne's proprietary only-works-on-two-devices WiFi card driver.Link: http://palmaddict.typepad.com/palmaddicts/2004/11/user_followup_p.html

A number of folks (including me) have experienced the dreaded crash but have never loaded anything like a WiFi driver on their Palm.
