    Does only the TT/Z/TZ have mobile broadband (WWAN)?

    Hey Guys,

    I was just curious, if any other laptops have the ability to have built-in (not using Express Cards or USB adapters), of the WWAN Mobile Broadband?

    I know Sprint has something with Sony Vaio's to where you have the availability to have broadband connection. Details here:

    I know that Dell has a WWAN Mini-PCI-Express Card that is internal for their Verizon/Sprint broadband cards, but I'm unsure how Sony provides it with Sprint?

    I'm awaiting delivery for my FW series, and want to have either Sprint of Verizon mobile broadband, but dont want to have to deal with Express/34 broadband cards or USB broadband adapters.

    Input and insight?

    Thanks in advance. :eek:
