Do/can the Orion or Rostock (RAMBO) platforms support FLASHAIR type WIFI enabled SD Cards?

Thanks!

I think this could work, some people seems to make it work with Repetier, but when you look on the price, should it not be better to buy a RPi and install OctoPi ?

Thanks for the reply avigeilpro!

Perhaps it would be cheaper to install an RPi BUT, this takes up no real estate, no power, and no cords AND, I can simply save the files to the printer directly from S3d. Seems a viable option for a few $$$ more...

Does anyone have any direct knowledge that this will or will not work?

I've tried it in the past with TrendNet(?) WiFi SD cards and it didn't work. I think it was related to power draw.
