    I though I would try and put my 3 USB broadband Sim card in the slot behind the battery....but I cant, there seems to be some odd sticky label inside the slot!!!

    anyone else seen this?

    No point in sticking anything in there since the machine does not have a 3G modem.
    The 3G enabled models will be released in the future.

    technically you could install a 3g card, but most of the AAO's do not even have the second mini PCIe slot soldered on to the board. You would need to buy the slot on solder it on then add the card etc...
