Enfora Wifi Sled working with the Centro after some user modifications

[From Dennis Roberts, TX] Dennis points to this TreoCentral forum thread where a Enfora Wifi Sled is being modified to work with the Palm Centro with some success. "I wanted some way to be able to use WiFi on my device in areas with no cell coverage. Mainly for areas outside the country that I go to that have free WiFi but no sprint coverage. I picked up an Enfora 650 WiFi sled on Ebay last week. I received it yesterday. I was initially unable to connect the two due to the fit between the Centro and the sled. The device was never able to see the sled. I don't think the metals contacts on the sled were hitting the Centro. I decided to remove the electronics from the plastic sled. I removed one screw on the sled and was able to open the sled and remove the electronics and battery. Everything is in one piece when you remove it. Once removed from the plastic I was able to connect the two and upgrade the sled's firmware to the beta version posted in these forums. After that I was able to scan and connect to access points.

I plan to create my own packaging for the electronics out of some spare plastic and electrical tape. It will not look the best but it works and I will only be using it every once in a while.

Hopefully I will be able to post some pictures later.

If you want to do this here are some tips
- I used the Enfora 650 sled. The 600 sled should also work but I can't verify.
- Once you get the sled use a T-7 torx head to remove the screw in the sled.
- Pry sled apart with your fingers and you should be able to remove all of the electronics in one piece.
- Charge the sled completely
- Use the firmware on TreoCentral to update the electronics
- Soft reset your phone and install the beta WiFi manager on TC
- Go to prefs, network, and disconnect your current Vision service
- Connect the Centro and electronics and you should be all set."
