    There is a very good offer on ebay right now ;)
    I will take one for test.

    P.S. I've just installed Sierra MC8780 HSDPA (USD 33.20) into my CF-19. Works perfectly and finally GPS works!
    Just install this modem, connect WWAN antennas, enable GPS (by GUI) and be happy :)

    Option GMT382E is not an option anymore, I will sell this %#@# :)

    my previous MiniPCI-E modem :)
    Option Globetrotter GTM382E
    This one had to receive GPS data too, but never worked stable. So I've changed it for Sierra MC8780 which works well :)

    The WiKi is looking good. I want a card to handle LTE and GPS, that's all I am wishing for. If anybody know's about one please come knockin! I am so tired of not using my embedded card, since I have LTE. At least I use the modem with a mobile router which helps.

    Yes, it will, if you have the latest Bios and EC. I have the Gobi 1000 in my 30 Mk2. The Mk2 came with Bios and EC v11. The Gobi card was not recognized. I updated to Bios v15 and EC v13(IIRC) and the Gobi card was recognized in the Bios.

    This may not be such a good deal. The card is an HP un2400 Gobi card.

    Where is this info from? :)
    This card is in Panasonic caddy, not HP. It would be strange if it was just un2400 (HP) :)
    It's Gobi 1000, not 2000, that's right. But I can't see a big difference in their specs.

    From the one that I bought to check out. The caddy is a CF-30 HSDPA 3.6 version. Apparently someone thought they could put the HP card in it and upgrade to Gobi. The dip switches were still set to HSDPA, not UNDP1.
