    Hi All,

    I just ordered a Sony vaio z 690 configure to order notebook through their website(USA). When I configure vaio z690, there wasn’t an option to select my Wireless LAN (wifi) card, so I thought there is a wifi receiver comes with this laptop by default (As it says on their product home page). Few minuets later, I got my order confirmation, and it says:

    LCD 13.1" (XBRITE-DuraView™)
    Black
    Microsoft® Windows Vista® Home Premium 64-bit
    Trusted Platform Module / Biometric Fingerprint Sensor
    Microsoft® Works
    QuickBooks Simple Start
    SuperMulti Drive
    Windows® Live OneCare 90-Day Trial
    Integrated Wireless Wide Area Network
    No
    No Fresh Start™
    Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P9600 (2.66GHz)
    Standard Battery (BPS12)
    320 GB SATA Hard Disk Drive [7200 rpm]
    4 GB DDR3-SDRAM (DDR3-1066, 2GBx2)

    There is no clue listed in my order about the Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, or graphics card. I am assuming Wireless LAN: Intel® WiFi Link 5100AGN (802.11a/b/g/n), Integrated Stereo A2DP Bluetooth® technology, and dedicated NVIDIA® GeForce® 9300M GS chip included as it says on Sony Vaio Z product home page).

    can anyone confirm if Sony VAIO Z690 CTO comes with Wireless LAN: Intel® WiFi Link 5100AGN (802.11a/b/g/n), Integrated Stereo A2DP Bluetooth® technology, and dedicated NVIDIA® GeForce® 9300M GS chip.

    Thanks
