I was recently whining about the lack of a modern Sony VAIO P replacement.
If this has a built-in 4G/LTE modem, I may want one, especially if it is possible to run Linux on it (maybe via Deploy Linux?).
That's something else I recently whined about: why there is no 4G/LTE modem in any ultrabook (except for one or two unaffordable chromebooks not available in my country anyway)? It seems to be only in tablets and high-end 15" laptop. That makes no sense to me.
- ac29 11y agoThe Lenovo X series Thinkpads have an optional LTE modem.
- voltagex_ 11y agoI wondered this as well. My last laptop purchase was the Lenovo X1 Carbon 3443CTO, which I believe is the 2013 version. It's not easy to get to the WWAN card and replace it, and no idea if the BIOS would even let you. Shortly after I got the laptop, Optus rolled out LTE in my city on a non-standard frequency (LTE-A on 2600mHz). This is one of the reasons I prefer a USB dongle or Wifi "hotspot".
