Title: what is the slot on the mainboard of the S1080
Post by: davidbec on November 27, 2011, 12:20:53 am

There is a slot like a mini PCI on the S1080 mainboard. I want to know whether this is a mini PCI/PCI express and whether I can install a GPS card there.

Hi Davidbec,  ;)

Just for other members, I add infos :

Just mentioned your precedent Topic:

First : A better picture about your question:

And a extract text : Second, is there is a full size mini-PCIe slot available for use, with an antenna sitting there. While designed to be the home of a 3.5G card, it could serve many alternative purposes - GPS, etc.
