3G inside...but not yet

Finally someone has created a meaningful partnership with a 3G provider. Dell has teamed up with Vodafone, to be precise. Lift up the battery in the new Latitude D620 or D820 and you'll find a SIM card underneath. I know; I've seen it. The 3G card is built into the main body of the laptop and like most WLAN solutions the aerial is built into the screen. If you've an existing 3G card on contract, you can also use the SIM card and software from that solution though, of course, Vodafone are hoping you'll choose them. The solution is factory fitted but requires a phone call to set up your 3G account when you receive your laptop. However, confusingly, despite Dell having said we'd be able to order the solution from today, we can't. You can get the laptop, but there's no build-to-order option for the 3G yet.
