Hardware > can a CF to wireless adapter be used with supercard etc?

Hey,

I sometimes hear about those CF-wireless adapters. As far as I can see there are for palms etc, but I wonder whether it's possible to configure them to connect to a network and read of a network drive, but still behave like CF card on the other side.
Then one could plopp that into the supercard (i.e.) and read a rom off a computer, which would make it possible to run programs quickly during development. Would this work at all?

Not really. They'd use the IO mode, which is more like PCMCIA than ATA (as used by the disc type CF cards).
