Will Wifi Ever Happen?

[Midgard]

It would probably be one of the hardest things to get done, and it is kind of uselesss so I don't see it happen I don't really want it to happen neither.

Spending an additional 50 or so USD for a decent working camera lens that you can pocket if you want is useless? Having one device that not only can handle gaming, movies, music, but also taking pictures, browsing the internet, watching tv, AND recording sound is useless? Wireless connectivity to multiplay games is useless? Okay.

GPH has said that the GP2X supports SDIO (in hardware), somewhere

They also said there aren't any drivers yet.

 

[Rayek]

All I can say is

WOW.

and where?

And does anyone think that GPH would take care of that bit (the drivers) or would we have to reverse engineer them? (We as in the proverbial we, the 'everybody else' we... heh )

If open SDIO drivers where easy to create somebody in the Linux community would have done so by now. As far as I can tell SDIO support is a very difficult thing to do.

Edit: Idiot.

 

[triton]

well this has the potiential to kick ass but righ now we are up shit creek without a paddle as the saying goes. we have hardware support but were boned unless we can come up with some drivers. oi >.<
