    Hello,

    Has anyone tried upgrading the internal bluetooth 3.0 module? Are the internal 3.0 modules even available yet?

    mPCIe, I believe so. Internal USB may be a bit out, though.

    Are there BT 3.0 radios available for purchase? If so, where from?

    When you're following a teardown video you want it to be fast. Slow or real-time is painful to get to the point where you need. The Alienware videos are a prime example. Yes, the edit it down to the pertinent stuff, but

    you

    still

    have

    to

    watch

    the

    guy

    unscrew

    all

    4

    screws

    just

    to

    remove...
