    My laptop came with the AT&T wireless internet installed, and from what I read there is a way to configure it to act as a GPS device (which was my intention when purchasing it, not to use it as internet). I noticed Lenovo has some sort of software, but the W500 is not on the certified list.

    Will any GPS type software I install recognize that there is a GPS unit here? I can't seem to find any instruction on how to configure it.

    Thanks,

    Kevin
