    Hi,

    I've read that the wifi adapter is very easily accessible (under the battery cover!?). Is it just like with the older S model?
    Has anyone already replaced it? I'd like to put an intel 6230 inside it since I need 802.11a and at least in my region it seems that sony only uses bgn cards.

    Has anyone already done it and can confirm it work well?

    Thank you very much!!
