pdabuyersguide has a detailed review of the http://www.pdabuyersguide.com/tips/sprint_2031CF.htm Sprint CF2031 Compact Flash Card with PC Card Adapter. Lisa G., a self described "hopeless wireless geek," appears to have had a great time hooking all of this up to her Toshiba e755.
"Driver installation was a breeze, and requires about 500k of storage space on the Pocket PC. Upon completing installation, you'll see the PCS Connection Manager application on your Pocket PC. It launches automatically when you insert the card, and stays running even if you switch to another application. Data connections were reliable and speeds averaged around 50 to 55k."
She even discusses why this may even beat the Pocket PC Phone edition: "When buying a Pocket PC Phone Edition like the Audiovox Thera, Toshiba 2032 or T-Mobile, you're married to the device. If you want to upgrade your Pocket PC, you've also got to worry about changing your mobile phone (and associated contract issues if switching providers). PPC Phone Edition PDAs tend not to have cutting edge features like the fastest processors, lots of memory or SDIO expansion slots, and for Pocket PC power users and frequent upgraders, this can be a downer. With the 2031 CF card, you can switch/upgrade you Pocket PC whenever you wish, as long as your Pocket PC has a CF type II slot. The card also does double duty, acting as a modem for your notebook computer, which is a big bonus for road warriors. While you can use other phones as modems for your notebook with the sometimes hard to find data cable accessory, this card is a much more turnkey solution."
If anyone here is thinking about going with one of these cards, please post your comments!
Hey, I don't live in an area covered by sprint, namely canada, Eastern Canada to be exact. I know we have a 1X (CDMA2K) network here, but can you use this device on any 1X network? I know a lot of cell phones cannot be transfered from one provider to another.

I'm not totally sure about this myself as I just started learning about phone "Unlocking" just last week. I would assume Sprint has them locked but that certainly isn't an informed opinion.
