Copper Head WiFi Shield and Arduino Mega 2560

Hi everyone, I'm new to Arduino and electronics. I want to do a robot that can move according to the commands that are given from the PC over the WiFi. I have LinkSprite Copperhead WiFi Shield (http://www.linksprite.com/product/showproduct.php?lang=en&id=195). But there are no tutorials for this shield.

So can I use socket app to do this robot ? If can how ? (Code???) Also what is the proper wiring to make this shield work on mega 2560?

Please help me and I'm doing it for my college project (so its urgent :/).

Thank you.

Hi,
why not use Arduino WiFi Shield? My limited experience tells me that Copper Head WiFi Shield has a relative longer time in the initial connection and less support source.
