    Hi guys, I'm new here.
    I'm having few questions about my 8540p :
    1. How can I use GPS in WWAN card UN2400 ? I installed Googlemap but it's can't detect my device :confused:
    2. How can I use the smart card reader ? I coudn't find any smart card in the package ! So, What type of smart card that I have to buy ? Or it's can be used with any type of smart card ( include simcard ? )
    Sorry for my bad English :p
    Thanks !

    The GPS device needs to be on and 'locked' before google can see it. also you need to ensure the google software is looking at the right port.

    on my hp 8740w it is COM6 (UN2400 NMEA)

    hope this helps mate.
