Will this give a T60 "N" capability - without a BIOS-mod?

Original card in t60 has 2 antenna connections - this card has 3 -- how will that work out ?

I am told it works great. The 3rd antenna is for signal boost, so if you live or work in an environment where low signal is an issue than you'll want the 3rd antenna. if you don't, then you won't need it.

**Edit - no longer needed, found on EBay.
