    Panasonic Toughbook CF-31BTN7A2M No Wireless, WinXP (Win7 COA), Intel Core i5-540M 2.53GHz, vPro, 13.1" Touch XGA, 2GB, 250GB, TPM, No WLAN, No Bluetooth, ATI Discrete Graphics (Mobility Radeon HD 5650 / HD Graphics), 2nd LAN, No Drive,

    Dunno how accurate it is, mate. But several sites came up with this config. I suppose only Panny can confirm.

    And add the discontinued model lists also. Somewhere along 2009 it disappeared.

    Blimey. I haven't been able to use the discontinued model generator since i got my CF-27 in late 2009. When it disappeared i thought it was a bug, it drove me bonkers. Haven't cared since then, until now that is. And i still only get the current models. I ran my CF-H1-H through the generator a few days ago. and i tried it now as well, works fine.

    Hope the OP doesn't consider this as hijacking his thread:
    I still can't find the configuration details for my CF-28, a European model with the Serial No CF-28PBJ12FE - can't figure out what the "1" signifies, so if anyone can help...

    Usually when there are two numbers together it signifies a special model made for a company, e.g. the SBC models. In that case the "2" probably does not mean what it might otherwise either ... ;)

    Ah, so I may not even have the Mobitex LAN card if Springfield is right ( I've looked inside but my ignorance means I have a hard time telling one card from another). Is there anywhere that shows pictures of the different mini PCI cards?
    Anyway, thanks to you all for teaching me a few more things.
