    Are there any T400 models that aren't integrated WWAN upgradeable?

    The Australian Lenovo site explicitly lists some models as Integrated WWAN upgradeable, e.g., 27652KM, and others not, e.g., 2764A12 (and also note the different number of 'Wireless Networking Components': 3 vs. 2).

    zachareth reports in a post at the Lenovo forums and a post at the HardwareZone forums that his Singapore model (2768-AA6) isn't WWAN upgradeable, though a reply states that no T400 seems to come without the WWAN slot.

    All the T400 models in the tabook come with the Mini PCIe WWAN slot, but I'm not sure how much help that is given that the model I'm looking at, 2764A12, isn't listed.

    Finally, the T400 setup poster indicates that the 'UltraConnect wireless WAN antenna' is on select models only, but the date of that poster, April 2008, precedes Intel's release of Centrino 2.
