I modded my NC10 by soldering a mini pci-e connector to the internal pads next to the WIFI card and installing a Novatel 3G mini pci-e modem (US). I now have broadband everywhere. Pretty cool.
Nice work. Soldering scares me :(. Is 3G like the connection offered by cell phone carriers? how much/fast is it?
BINGO!
Nice one jhford, i’ve ordered a pci-e connector so not long till i’m in the same boat. Can’t wait in fact but tell me this; did you use a 3g card with built in sim reader. Did you need to short any pins to power it?
are you going to post a walk through guide? and parts list?

And Photographs?????
This would be really great! My USB 3G dongle is nearly half the size of my NC10 😉
yeah a walk through with lots of pics would make us very happy 😀

Give me a couple of weeks and i’ll put one together. 😉 I’ve already started my thread and have bought pci-e connector and just need to pick out a good card to use. Still, if jhford could answer a few questions i have before i start this would really help and speed things up.
