    Just got my new cf-53 and so far so good.... but wish I had gotten the WWAN option with GPS. Anyone have experience with this one? See the card on ebay for various prices, but what else is involved? Don't currently see anything in the bios options so do I need to enable it with a flash update like the cf-52?

    Any thoughts would be great

    Thanks

    My guess the BIOS will see the new card so you should not need any updated bios
