    I recently purchased a D250 for my wife and would like to upgrade it with a Broadcomm HD decode as was done recently on a Samsung (http://www.sammynetbook.com/plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?36683).

    I see that my D250 has an empty PCIe slot (for WWAN, I assume), but does anybody know if it is a full PCIe slot or wired for USB only?

    Thanks...

    the spare slot on the bottom is full on mini pcie AFTER upgrading to a later bios (1.07 did it for me)

    i've been running the decoder now for well over a month or 2.

    read through this thread... a few pages in it describes everything
