    I recently purchased an HP Compaq 6910p with an embedded AT&T HSPDA broadband card (came as a standard "option"), but I still have at least a year remaining under my Sprint mobile broadband contract, and I'd like to keep it anyway, since I like their service. Try as I might, I can't find an answer to the following question:

    If I purchase a Dell Sprint wireless broadband minicard from Dell's parts site, will it work in the 6910p? Since the antennae are already present and it's just a matter of replacing the card (very reasonably priced on Dell's site), I'd like to avoid having to mess with a PCMCIA card anymore.

    I'd really appreciate any helpful information. Thanks!
