DELL tiny 9 3G install

[Rob] sent in his Dell tiny 9 3G install. He gotten the Dell without the 3G option, but found that he truly desired it. He installed a tiny pcie bracket and found a sim connector that matched the specs he needed. apparently they utilize one that it unusual as it utilizes the first pin to indicate whether or not there’s a card loaded. He pulled the tiny pcie 3G card from a cheap USB adapter. After soldering everything in location and firing up OS X, he was able to connect, without issue. He states the reception wasn’t great, so he’ll need to add an antenna. This is similar to the process seen on the Acer aspire one 3G hack. considering that you’re already in there, you might also add a GPS while you’re at it.
