It's a SIM Card slot for WWAN.

According to these recent articles....

... Vietnam is still in the throws of deciding who will operate 3G networks. What you may be able to use in future will depend on what the eventual network operators decide to provision.

In general, its unlikely that an AT&T card would be of any use to you, as Vietnam will probably adopt European-like standards rather than US-like standards for any future WWAN deployment.

Cheers,
