    The saga to find an internal solution for WWAN in Australia continues........

    Can any of the knowledgable people out there tell me if This board will work in a MK4 CF-18, and will it work with something like This card?
    Thanks,
    Fraser

    What does the seller say? He has been selling Toughbook parts on ebay for years... If he doesn't know 100%.... He shouldn't be selling it.

    Well....he says it won't fit, but he is also selling a CF-18 GPRS/EDGE setup as a HSDPA card, so I'm not sure he is 100%
    He says it has mini-pci on it, and one of the cards I have for my CF-18 has disused solder pads that are definately for Mini-pci, but it is also missing a heap of other components, so it's not an option. I did get a bluetooth module from him/her though at what I think is a good price.

    I think I've seen the two listings you mentioned. I just emailed the seller of the CF18 HSDPA module (or what is claimed to be one) to ask about specifications, etc.
