How can you tell if you've got WWAN?

Apart from opening up your machine, how do you know if you've got this Ericsson WWAN card? What should it appear as under Device Manager?
My laptop was sold as including WWAN you see, but it doesn't appear in Access Connections. I do have the SIM card slot behind the battery though.
Thank-you.

I'm just updating this, I opened up the Thinkpad in the end to check. There is no card in the miniPCI slot which means I don't have it.
Does anyone have any good UK stockists of Lenovo compatible cards, preferably with the GPS?
I saw that a little while ago Lenovo UK was selling them for ~£55 but they're all sold out on the link on the forum.
If you have the 5300 do you have all the necessary antennae?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Try the following UK online retailers:
More Computers,
Insight UK,
ECWorld &
Kikatek - Prices seem to start from around £71 inc VAT upwards plus P&P.
