Uisng mPCIe card in an ExpressCard slot

#1 Post by fasterbybike » Sat Mar 27, 2010 3:34 am

I have a mPCIe WWAN card in my X61. I would like to use this WWAN card in my R52's ExpressCard slot for a short term project. (The R52 does not have an internal mPCIe slot.)

Is there an adapter so I can use this card rather than have to buy a compatible WWAN solution for the R52 ?

Couldn't find expresscard, but here's a USB solution.
