you can do some fancy stuff with terminal services client, which will allow you to access some of the things on your LAN. Read the microsoft knowledge base about it - I don't know much about it.

Via Cradle and activesync you should be able to access the LAN.
I use it for browsing the world wide web.
Think other things will also work....

Yes you can. Well .. sort of. I can perform terminal operations over LAN but haven't opened a socket for mail / IE yet. Please see:

Hi there,

the link is broken! I cannot open the document!

But what about WLan? This should work, shouldn't it?
For example with the SanDisk SD-WLan card (about 129 Dollar/Euro) I-Net should be possible and with some smart utils the rest should work as well (well I don't know about that kind of smart utils but I hope to find things like that...)
What should seperate a XDA from a Lan?

hm.... damn.

I read about that but I thought there'll be other cards on the market :(
I hope they develop one in the future.

SanDisk wrote about SDIO and that their cards need it to work.


I hope to access WLan someday to receive my mails inside my university

the only way a xda1 can connect to the internet using your broadband is

using the IR so the xda connects to the ir port if you got one
or having the xda in the cattle / usb connected to a pc

the only other way you can access the Internet is using GPRS which your telephone company must support and it's kinda slow and often expensive

here they have games

though most are demo's because as a rule you
have to pay to play :P

cheers mate, i'll post another one if i have ne problems with that!
the site for games is pretty cool, but i think having a look on kazaa with a search of "pocket pc" might bring up some stuff aswell...
cheers again for your help, jus one little thing, i'm thnking about getting a keyboard for the xda so maybe it could be used to type with..? the official keyboard plugs straight in but there are many "universal" infra red ones and i am curious as to whether or not these might be slower because of IR or which one is better!? ne suggestions please on a decent keyboard for the xda that don't cost 90 quid :o!
