Not anymore. Xircom made a WiFi sled for the m500 series which we reviewed in our WiFi section, but it was absurdly expensive at its original price of $299, and I believe it's now discontinued. You might find one on eBay.
Hopefully we'll see those WiFi SD cards that were supposed to be out this Spring soon!

The first one is expensive and bulky. I wouldn't hold my breath for the second one (SDIO) after what I had been reading on the manufacurer's forum about Palm's SDIO implementation being non-standard. And, per a good source, I would avoid the BlueM because it is a poor implementation using it's own Bt Stac, therefore limited.
Hope this helps. Please feel free to email me.

BTW: These limited options and the SDIO information I had read forced me into the PPC realm last week. Dell's Axim has a great battery life (even compared with Palm) and is very inexpensive (even compared with Palm). I now have all the connectivity I want and can play MP3s, movies, etc. I no longer have to search for ways to make my PDA do what I want it to. I really am glad I made the switch. Check it out at Dell's site. (yes, this from a diehard Palm user of many years!)
If you're a US buyer, I wouldn't order from Expansys if you can find another source, as they often charge significantly over US list prices for items. They're reputable, but pricely. They also like to list items way before they're available!
The Socket WiFi card was supposed to be released in March. I haven't heard of any unexpected delays from them, but ya never know.
