Cingular WWAN info
Posted: Fri Jul 07, 2006 4:48 pm
I just got a 2007-6HU with the Cingular WWAN from Lenovo. I am in LA so we just have Edge (~100kbps) 
so performace is slow compared to Verizon EV-DO.
The card is a Sierra Wireless MC8765 and there is a daughter-card for the SIM chip. You may notice that there is only one Main antenna wire for the Cingular card, not sure why. See the photos below:

Just as a FYI, I was able to take the Cingular card and daughterboard and transplant it into a T60 with Verizon EV-DO card and after loading the drivers and connection software it worked. The setup also worked the other way around with the Verizon card in the Cingular system.
