    Have just returned my XPS L702x to Dell because of the mix up with the RAM slots,only received 2 when I was told I would receive 4 before ordering.and also the 900 screen,not the best by far.
    As stated in title, the N6230 cards dont exists at the moment for XPS
    Is there much of a difference between this card and the Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1030 (1x2 b/g/n+ Bluetooth Combo Card) in performance,as I do all of my internet access via wireless.

    I think main diff is that 6230 is a dual band card

    maybe better to just upgrade to N6300 ....... (if there are 3 antennas in the notebook)

    I'd wait for Intel to release a 6330 type with three bands and bluetooth. I'll be getting one when/if they come out.
