Customer Reviews

Works fine, pitty the size
The Spectec SDW-822 works fine. The only catch is its size, because the card is bigger than the slot, therefore, you cannot carry the MotoQ with the card inserted or you'll risk breaking it. You'll have to plug it when needed and unplug it when finishe using it.

Apart from that, work as expected.

works with motorola Q9m / c NOT Q
the newer Q9m has the SDIO port, the Q only has the memory port. other reviews show that it works flawlessly.

Get the Right Wifi card for your Phone
For those people out there that are more money conscious about their phone services like me, Getting one of these guys is a nice alternative.
Spectec makes these card is a few different flavors. If you have a phone like mine, make sure you get the Motorola specific card. I was tempted to by one that was not on my first purchase because of the price and finally realized that it was the wrong model card because the drivers would not install. This card is also available in wireless G too, but is 20-30 bucks more. This B version works fine.

I Have a Motorala Q9c from Verizon running Windows mobile 6.1, and I would rather not pay the extra 30+ dollars every month for mobile internet service, since I already have the mobile broadband card in my laptop and pretty much carry it around everywhere as an IT professional. I bought the wifi card and then called verizon to turn off my internet ability to prevent changes.

When I found out there was a Wifi add-on card I became very interested. I bought this card with the intention to pop it in whenever I might have the need to check something on the Internet and with any luck, there would be an open network near by.. Or if I am feeling lazy about pulling out my laptop and just give check a few things in the morning on my phone instead.

With these things being said. It pretty much functions as advertised and satisfies my need for Internet on the phone for the most part. If you think you will need the internet most of the day, stick with the paid service or get this card to help keep the kilobit charges at bay.
When this card is active its pretty much free Internet on open or secure networks. A few other things to note are: for one, when the card is enabled, the phone can really burn though you battery if your aggressively using the internet. Secondly, the wifi card sticks out enough that its probably not good practice to keep it in all the time. I drop my phone sometimes and with this card sticking out, it would be a quick end to it all.

One thing as a side note about smartphones is that there is numerous add-on internet applications for the phone that makes smart phones more useful, sort of like an Iphone but not as cool. Anyway, if you have one these phones and are not taking advantage of the improving mobile web, you missing out.

When learning more about this product initially, there was not much information to really feel that it was going to work ok. Feel comfortable that I have got it going for my phone at it likely to work on yours as well.
