Acer Aspire One - What's this light for?
On the lower right corner of the palm rest is a small strip with a picture
of an antenna on it. An LED to the right of the strip lights to indicate the wireless is turned on. What does the LED to the left of the small strip indicate? It never seems to come on. Thanks. |

Future use for the SIM card module. Open the door on the bottom of the netbook and you will see where it goes. CB |

Forgot to mention if you take your battery off you will see an indent with a slot that has a simcard icon. http://www.flickr.com/photos/10565951@N06/3140548823/ CB |

Any idea when we might see these things? Very often electronic companies make holes and slots for lots of things that never materialize. My slot is covered by some sticky tape, but the symbol for a sim card is there. I assume the modem will be provided by Acer and the sim will be provided by your carrier. |

I guess we will see more when people grow old of the Aspire One. Me I use it all the time and so glad I never got the eeePC. I wish it came with blue tooth but not a big deal as I have a really small Mogo adapter and a mouse but I really like the touch pad. For the rare times you need a modem a Ebay $10 usb modem works fine but I use my Sony M600 either wired or I use the blue tooth. I also use it with a blue tooth earthmate gps. The touch screen is the awsome add-on too. CB |

Radio Shack sells a version of the Aspire One they call a 'Acer Aspire One AT&T 3G 8.9" Netbook' http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=3526401 If you put an AT&T SIM card in that slot then their "Aspire One AT&T 3G Netbook" will use AT&T's 3G network for the internet. I tried to get the Internet to work with a SIM card that is not from AT&T and it saw the network but it would not connect. BTW I looked at the available settings and didn't see anyway to change the access point it used to connect to the internet. |
