This newsgroup is primarily for generic questions. Questions about
Pocket PCs like yours are more likely to get specific questions if
asked in a newsgroup for Pocket PPCs. I recommend

Hi all
just bought a used Toshiba 330 ppc. i have most of the things that i bought
it for up and running. i only have two remaining thing to do with it and I
1) i would like to connect to the internet with it and wifi if possible

Not clear. You can certainly connect via ActiveSync, but that is
probably not what you want. Toshiba sold a Bluetooth adapter that
could be used for Ethernet (Internet) connections. The MobileTech
review (see below) says the SD Card slot supports SDIO, but not WiFi;
that suggests an SDIO Ethernet card will work, and maybe even an SDIO
WiFi card made after the review.

I used google (http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search) to look
up
toshiba e330 ethernet
and got 9 hits. I took a quick look and am not encouraged.

2)I would like to play mp3 files but i do not know what kind of memory card
to use

Any SD Card (Secure Digital Card) should work, but it will probably
only "see" 2 GB.

I used google (http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en) to look up
toshiba e330 review
and got 38,100 hits (note: using e330 rather than 330 helped greatly).
I took a quick look and found the following:
http://www.mobiletechreview.com/toshiba_e330.htm

Chris De Herrera's web site is usually a great source. I went there,
looked up
toshiba e330
and got several hits, including
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/bugs/pocketpc2002-toshiba.htm

The Pocket PC 2002 comparison at DeHerrera's site doesn't include the
e330. It does include the slower e310:

and got 8,990 hits, including
