    hi, i noticed the sim slot behind the battery in my xps m1530 when i got it a few months ago, tried to put a sim card from a mobile phone in it but nothing happened, and proceeded to forget all about it! :)

    ha so i was just wondering does anyone actually use this slot? and if so what for?

    cheers guys!

    hooligan001, it will be used if you get a WWAN card.
