hi,

i'm looking at an x61s in ebay that has the wwan antenna on the right side of the screen. is it possible to remove it, it looks ugly and i don't need it. is it going to leave holes/marks on the side of the screen?

thanks,

You can remove the WWAN antenna after removing the LCD bezel, and cover up the opening with a "blank" -- if you can find the "blank" somewhere!

However, you may wish to reconsider -- reinstalling the LCD bezel is likely to give you trouble if you have not done it before, and chances are you will not find the "blank". My advice: get the machine, live with it a while, and do surgery only after you decide that you must.
