Does anyone know which WWAN Cards would work in the M17 R-1 with sprint service? I'm looking to put one built-in so I wouldn't have to keep using my phone with teathering

I am not sure if this model even supports WWAN in the first place.

cheers ...

If the card fits in an empty PCIE slot, and I install the drivers, why wouldn't it work?

You have to make sure you've got a pci-e slot available, plus height/size constraints: The laptop in first place doesn't have a lot of room to add things. Now I suppose you could take something out that's occupying a slot, however voltage requirements might get in the way. Just make sure that the WWAN card meets the voltage requirements of the motherboard first.
