Hmm...you are right. S$229. I just checked last week and it was $345.

You need to make sure that you have the WWAN antenna built into your LCD, else it will not work.

$229 for the Gobi 2000 is really very cheap already. I can't do better than that. However, I can get the Ericsson/Thinkpad 3G WWAN at around $200. Cheaper by $30 odd

Yes $299 for gobi 2000, checked that it's compatible with W510 as it has WWAN built in :) haha!

I AM REPLYING U AS MYSELF WITH NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SERVICE CENTER WHICH I WORK FOR

u ought to learn to be professional yet. being rude to your customer could be dangerous. anyway my problem is has already solved and waiting to see u eat your words, be sensible.

firstly, U ARE NOT MY CUSTOMER. i have never meant u or touch ur THINKPAD whom u already posted that U WILL NEVER TRUST IN THIS BRAND EVER. and i wasnt being rude in the first place. so if ur problem is solved, good for u. and look, i dun need to eat my words. cause i'm not the one with the HUGE ASS problem that u have to post crappy stuff like

lenovo will never be my notebook/pc choice again forever!

get a life. so if u have issues & u wanna see me EAT, come. MAKE ME EAT pls. i beg u, make me eat my words. i would like to see how u do that.

Dasanyuan: Don't need to care about those people. Consumer can decides what brand of laptop they choose, no need to care about them.

Can you help me with my above question?

If i'm not wrong, it's the lenovo image? i haven't collect my set so i do not know. I just want to know if it is possible to restore/change vista home premium to 64bit using the build in recovery.

what did he pm you? he never reply to me. nope i went for X201 instead. Light and portability :)

He pmed me about the default lenovo image in the system. If it came with 32bit, then even if you do recovery, they will auto install 32bit. That's all to what he said. So i guess alternative way to change to 64bit is to ask juzz1 when i order my W510 set.

me too i also gona go order x201 on the last day of the show, in case the warranty start from the day of ordering. plus also let the promoter earn commision within the fair.

when u all do update to 64bit pls share how

only manage to find the iso image online but not sure will work with the cd key for the laptop preinstall or not. the link also have iso for win7 ultimate too.

The CD Key on the COA of your laptop should work if you decide to install from scratch.
