    Hi,

    I didn't config a 1g intel turbo memory for my t61p. However, I heard that its actually works, even in the system with 3G+ RAM.

    I want to get one for my t61p, but now sure where I can buy it(online, US).

    Thank you!

    I know where you can get one.

    I have ordered a WWAN card and I won't need mine. It's brand new and you may have it.

    I got mine from buy.com.... Amazon ran out and won't have any for a while. You also need two screws to install which don't come with the card. Not exactly optional -- if you don't install the screws, the card won't stay down.

    I picked one up last week from Buy.com. I used one screw from the modem card to hold it in place. Works just fine.

    Most of the reviews I have read are inconclusive... It's $29... Worth a gamble in my opinion. Like I've said in numerous threads, I'm holding out hope that it helps with battery life somewhat today and maybe has more performance benefits down the road after Vista SP1 and newer Intel drivers.
