[q] sim card slot on hp touchpad

---

Hi Everyone, has anyone tried to crack open and put in a sim card as shown here: techrepublic "Cracking Open the HP Touchpad" I can't post a link as I am a new user, but will post it in 8 hours when I get permission.


Would love to know if anyone has this working or has at least tried it.

Here is the link

mine has a sim card slot i can actually pop out???

What do you mean? You can actually put in a sim card in the slot? If so, have you tried putting in a sim card? Did it register a Network provider?

Are you sure you are not just talking about the "serial number" that pops out, but is blocked (no space for a sim card)

yes it should pop out

Perhaps you accidentally bought the Touchpad 4G? That ought to have a SIM slot.

Did you try to put a sim card in the slot, or are you simply referring to the "serial number" pop out. They are not the same.

If you did put a sim card in, did it work?

I see what youre talking about in those pictures, but it doesnt look like it has any sort of electrical connection going to it.
