    Hi,
    I need help from other Toshiba Satellite A100/A105 owners. I am looking for an A100 or A105 laptop with Intel Core based CPU which also has a a mini-PCI (not the newer PCI Express one) WiFi slot. Has anyone ever come across an A100 (or A105) laptop model with Intel Core based CPU (like Celeron M, Core Solo ,Core Duo etc) and a mini-PCI WiFi slot. I would just need the model number.

    I have seen some A100/A105 models on sale on ebay with T1350 and T2400 CPUs but seller cannot tell whether laptop has mini-PCI or mini-PCI Express slot?

    Another question: I have noticed that some Toshiba A100/A105 models use ATI X200 chipset. Does these laptops with X200 chipset have mini-PCI slot or min-PCI Express slot?

    Thanks.

    I use to fix Toshiba laptops and I found any mini-PCI wifi card worked in various units. The only restrictor for me was physical size of the cards since some of the laptops didn't have much room for a bigger card.
