Posted: May 28, 2001 @ 9:52amTHere is no way to expand the MMC expansion slot to use anything but storage cards. Sorry buddy. EM-500s suck.

Posted: May 29, 2001 @ 12:01amyou could connect to the broadband connection through activesync on your pc. You would need to install a proxy server on your desktop and configure your pocket pc to use it, but it would work. However, I don't see the point of that, because your pc would be right there, so you could use your pc to surf the web... unless it's just for the cool factor

Posted: May 29, 2001 @ 12:50amEM-500's don't suck. But the consumer doesn't usually know it isn't as expandable as the e-125, since it lacks a CF slot.<br><br>They tried to make it more appealing by offering a free MMC for a while (32 meg I think).<br><br>I'm glad I investigated all the PocketPC options for about 3 months before purchasing the e-125.

Posted: May 29, 2001 @ 1:51amYou should also be able to setup a network connection via your IR, however it's limited to whatever bandwidth it can push/recieve. <br><br>Doesn't the 707 have a CF slot *and* an mmc slot? (SD card)<br><br>
