    I am looking to get either an sz270 or an sz360, does anyone know if the antenna on the 270 can be removed?Does the sz360 have an external antenna I have not seen one in person?Also I am assuming the wan and wifi can be tuned off with a switch or in software?Thanks for any help.

    Hello
    1) The sz360 doesnt have an external antenna as it lacks wan
    2) the removal of the antenna will leave a hole.
    3) They are turned off with a switch

    Unless you plan on using the WWAN, I'd go for the SZ360 as you get the new Core 2 Duo processor.
