M1330 Wireless Card Options

If you order the M1330 with the Dell 1505 Wireless-N instead of the Intel Pro Wireless 3945 802.11a/b/g card can you still use the hardware switch for turning wireless on and off? I heard from another brand that you cannot use it anymore if you use another WiFi mini-card.
I wonder why not every base configuration offers the Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N card. Does that mean there are two different mainboard/chipset variations of the M1330? PS: Actually only the nVidia GeForce 8400 model is available with the Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N mini-card. If you order the X3100 model you have to choose the Dell 1505 Wireless-N card when you want to use draft n.

 

Hi, I can use my switch to turn the wireless on and off and I have had both cards and the switch works with both in my system. Don't know about any other users.

 

Did you notice any differences between the crads? Is the Dell 1505 Wireless-N mini-card reliable?

 

Hi, I did not notice any difference with the cards but am not yet using wireless n routers nor am I dealing with great distances. I think you might see a difference with long distances and probably also speeds.
