    aas dell cancelled my latitude order i'm thinking of getting a 1647

    i have a few questions regarding this laptop:

    how many internal antennas are present (is it possible to upgrade it to a 3x3 card?)
    does it come with wwan antennas and a simcard slot for a umts car?
    is it very quiet or a vry loud system?

    The Studio XPS 1647 is pretty quit, fan kicks on occasionally but not bad. There is currently a Studio XPS 1647 with core i5 540M and RGBLED on eBay for $1099 ;)
