IBM Lenovo Ericsson F3507G 2G 3G GPS WWAN Card 42T0959 - eBay (item 150512875863 end time Nov-28-10 01:45:46 PST)

This product is from ebay. My question is does it compatible with thinkpad T400?

System service parts - ThinkPad R400 and T400
Comparing to the ebay product with 43Y6477 and 43Y6479 from the link above, what's different?

Thanks.

 

this card if from Lenovo, will work with the R400, T400, T500, T400s, X301, etc.

You would have ask the seller whether this is from Lenovo, but from the picture this is an engineering sample, so the answer is most likely no, without a modified bios firmware with the whitelist removed.

 

i have one from ebay. my t400 can't acquire the satellite. i'm not sure it caused by a defective card, or it need data network (3g, gprs) to get my position.

 

it shouldn't need a data network to acquire the satellites. I am able to acquire with out a data plan.

 

so it mean that mine has been defected , right?

 

many of the cards on the eBay are actually engineering samples, which may or may not have all the features enabled.

 

Thanks for your info lead_org, trieudoahong, MAA83
@trieudoahong: Do you have the same of that card which is labeled "Prototype not type approved"?

 

oh no. my card has no "Prototype not type approved" on the label.
