Would this mod also be effective for the Dell Mini 9? You'd be able to skip the sim card holder since there is one behind the battery holder, right? Thanks in advance
there is no sim slot on dell... just the place for the holder..
i will test this on dell when i get it back...
anything similar to this for the Lenovo S1?
I'll be buying one at the end of this month
Hi JKK
I have big problems finding a pci-e connector for the 3G mod. Molex only have a 4 mm, with same specs. Can it be used.....or can you help me ??

Hello thanks for the wonderful job

Hi JKK,
Can I remove the WIFI card from my ACER and use a Novatel 850D HSDPA card in its place? and will it require additional modding? perhaps covering pins 20 + 18 with tape?<-- similar to what you did with the Dell Mini 9?
Thank you for your time.
Is this some convoluted way to drum up demand for the parts needed for the 3G mod? where did you folks who posted this mod get your parts from? They are nowhere to be found on the internet searches. Obsolete parts says Molex? What the? What was ACER thinking? or did ACER buy them out and planning on selling them to us later for a jacked up price? What the? hmmmm. I wonder. And what's the idea ACER dummy's soldered in only 512MB RAM chips limiting max installed RAM capability to only 1.5GB? MAX should have been left at allowed 2GB for this chip set. Dang, what goes on here? Hmmmmm. Oh well, nice cute netbook regardless.
Author(s) of this 3G mod, please tell us where you sourced your parts from. Why don't you answer our questions on where to get the parts from? Does not make sense that you told and showed us everything else on how to perform the mod, listed the parts used, but left out where we can get them from! Do you have stock in the parts suppliers maybe and are trying to drive up the demand to a certain point before releasing where and who to buy from (at a jacked up price) perhaps? No right? so then please just say where you all got your parts from... PLEASE?
Dear all,
i would like to know how we can help the acer one to recognize the MC8775 on OS X.

Hello JKK I need to know the sim slot holder that you used what brand and model did you use? and where did you obtain it from?
can i connect to the internet with this idea and hoe please thank you..
You are truly the man!
I have the same problem about a hole where the Sim card should have been. I have seen the how to above, But where do I get thee SIM card and how much is it. Is there a specific Sim card made for the Acer? or should I buy a mobile phone and tear the SIM reader out of it?
Thank you, I need it please help

Hi JKK, Would this method be identical for the Aspire ONE 531 or ZG8 model?
Many thanks for all your posts!!
My daughter just got the aspire one!! I have no clue about this laptop,, I want to add a picture program to this and Have only a disc, which this computer does not take.. What can I do or how do I add programs to this?
you can buy simm slot and PCI-E conn on ebay, there is a trader from Hong Kong, i Just bought one and istalled, however it looks to be 10mm or more, since i had to cut case. Also I inserted SIMM card and it burned up, so be very careful what are you doing ...
ACER ASPIRE AS 1410
Hello! This is a diferent model. Does anyone know what I have to do to have the 3G on it? It seems it has a sim holder from factory behind the battery. I really don't know it is usefull or "decorative" to future models.
The 3G modem is the same of wi-fi? Or I undertand totally wrong?
Please help me with tricks or links.
