Thinkpads Forum

Over here in Europe the IdeaPad S10 is available from Dec but you in the US already have it, so someone might knows this:

Will there be an Option for an integrated Wireless Broadband Adapter in the S10?

I'm aware it has the PC-Card-Slot, but since the only reason for the S10 is to stay online everywhere it would be a nice feature to have a 3G device already integrated.

I just got the S10 Idea pad and it is very nice. very smallbut easy to type on. I has integrated wifi wireless but if you mean cell phone company broadband I don't think so. it does not have the pcmcia slot but the express slot which is smaller . it also has a card reader SD I think. I just got it yesterdayand have only been using it about an hour so haven't looked at the paperwork.
It isrunniing xp home and has 2 memory slots It has one 1gig chip and an open slot . I got it for $392.00 when I calledand online the same specs were $409 with the 160 gb hard drive. in RED.
It is VERY light my only concern is for the white keyboard bezel and adapter. I will need to keep that one clean.
It does NOT come with any disks, or any version of ms office trial orotherwise. It has a 2 monthsubscription to Symantec which is just annoying anyway. Has 2 usbs, a lan port, headset, and mic jacks. Also has a 15 pin D port for external monitorwhich might be nice. the screen is okay comes set up on balance and can be tweaked 2 notches brighter. no glare on the display. Good luck if you decide to get one.

WWAN is definately not an option yet, at least TTBOMK in the US market.

WWAN is not an option for the S10 in Australia either, where there is at least one 3G WWAN vendor with truly national coverage, so availability of viable and pervasive 3G WWAN service is not an issue.
