    You will need a WWAN card and a subscription from your broadband provider. they will provide you with a SIM which then you can use on the slot. The SIM card alone will not work. you'll need a WWAN card which you can install in one of the Mini PcI slot beside your WiFi slot.

    Edit: I'm assuming of course you are referring to the slot underneath where the Battery is.
