That is the WWAN antenna; you can connect to the internet via the EDVO card and a Wireless Carrier (Cingular, Verizon, etc). :)

Just to clarify a little, I don't think built-in WWAN supports any service except Verizon. MAYBE you could get it to work with another EVDO service like Sprint, but definately not any EDGE service from anyone like Cingular, T-Mobile, etc...
