    I am trying to add a WIFI card to a recently acquired CF-50 (CF-50F1FGUKM). So far all of the information I have found via google applies to other models. The CF-51 info does not help as there are significant differences between them. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Okay, apologies if I wasted anyones time. I just discovered that my CF-50 does not have the mini psi slot. I assume that retrofitting one is a step too far. Any other ideas or should I just stick with the USB WIFI modem I have?

    Unfortunately the model CF-50 I have does not have the mini pci slot necessary to use that card. I am using a USB dongle, and guess I will have to stick with it. Thanks for the time and attention.
