    Hello,
    I guess I'm one of the lucky ones that have a Mini-PCI-E Slot in my AAO-110 (Norwegian version).
    Unfourtanly I can not find any Sim card slot in my 110, and most of the Mini-PCI-E 3G modems does not have a built-in sim card slot.
    I did not check for 3G antenna when I added more memory, so I have to open it again to check, could it be the white wire???
    But I did find this one "Expedite EU850D", it has a "onboard" sim card reader, I will order it next week.
    Here is a picture of my port.

    Here is the Modem (Expedite EU850D)
    It can be ordered from Mobilix.hu http://www.mobilx.hu/expedite-eu850d-beepitheto-modul.html

    I've got one from the uk, with no connector for the mini pcie card, but it's got the slot from the battery compartment to the socket.

    It's covered over with black tape.

    Easy to miss, if you aren't looking. You appear to have a dent in your compartment, at about the right place for it, on the top side?

    Aw...wow Thanks!
    Now I have much more choices, did you do anything with the antenna?
    what brand did you install and how about the drivers?
