The WWAN card in the system is a Huaewi EM770J which is compatible with T-Mobile's 3G 1700 MHz (AWS Band 4) frequency used in the US. I have searched for the card alone, but haven't been able to find one for sale anywhere at this time. I even emailed Huaewi about purchasing 50 cards, but they will not sell card alone at this time. Looks like T-Mobile is taking all the production for now.

The stock Dell 5530/40 cards will connect to T-Mobile's network in the US, but only through the EDGE (1900 MHz) network. Not at 3G speeds.

If you do find a source for the card, please let me know.


MINI 9: Jade Green, RunCore 64GB SSD, Hyper-X 2GB RAM, Dell 5530 WWAN Card, Dell 1505 WiFi Card, Bluetooth 2.1, 1.3MP Webcam, Leopard 10.5.8 NBI 8.0.3 Final, BIOS A05

You make also inquiries about this card from this site:

Huawei 3G Module EM770J - China Huawei,3G Module,EM770J in Network Communication Device

Perhaps they are more willing to sell now.

Actually, it's already available on eBay, or at least a similar version of it:

The EM770W
New UNLOCKED HUAWEI EM770W WWAN 3G HSDPA HSUPA PCI-E - eBay (item 250681711300 end time Oct-11-10 09:43:55 PDT)

Which the seller says works on the Dell Mini 9 (see bottom of the page)

The EM770
HuaWei EM770 3G WWAN Card HSDPA HSDP EDGE UMTS Module - eBay (item 250684979950 end time Oct-17-10 18:43:53 PDT)

After a little more reading, I realized that the only versions of these cards that work with T-mobile are the EM770J and EM770U which offer 1700 and 2100 UMTS speeds. They are not being sold on eBay unfortunately.
