    I have this X61s and this 3G internet provider through Zain, a telecommunication company. If I stick in the mobile chip that is 3G ready in the back of the X61s sim slot, how would I go about setting it up to work? Or am I restricted to only use a sim card from a certain US company?

    Depends on the WWAN card you have installed

    SIM slot yes, no WWAN installed = no.
