now you know how much I want to bang my head up to a wall last 2 week. 29th jan order, 12th feb got. 15 days!!!!
just realized that this xps have infrared, and also 3g/hsdpa optional. 1 extra mini pcie wwan slot, 2 more antenna wire, and also, if we remove the battery, we can see the sim card slot.
with all this feature, i think the money i spend is well worth it...

My Dell Inspiron 1420 also have the S.I.M card slot underneath the battery slot which I never tried before. Actually, how we can utilize this slot? We only have to slot in our S.I.M card into it and then what will happen next? Is it we can surf internet via the S.I.M card if my S.I.M card does support & includes 3G/HSDPA?

Hey guys i think i should make an unboxing video when mine arrives since i haven't seen one unboxing with the merlot red colour before. so wait, if we can get the WWAN card installed that means we can use our 3G on the laptop?
