Physically, the PDA needs to be able to accommodate a wireless card. (Some PDAs may start building this in, but for now they come in PCMCIA and CF ("Compact Flash") formats.) Software-wise, the PDA needs a driver. This may be included in the PDA OS, or included with the wireless card, usually on a CD to be read by a PC and downloaded via a cradle or other existing interface. My Linksys WCF12 wireless card came with a driver and instructions for PocketPC PDAs. But my Sharp Zaurus runs Linux, and recognized it immediately without needing to download a driver. (You'll need network-capable applications on the PDA, such as a browser, to actually *use* the connection for anything.)
