Sony Vaio P Modded To Accept SIM Cards, 3G via HSDPA Connection

The Vaio P comes with EV-DO hardware, but an enterprising modder has tweaked everyone's favorite makeup compact netbook to accept HSDPA SIM cards too, for 3G connections from AT&T. It's not for beginners, though.

Since there was no elusive SIM card slot found like there was on the HP Mini 1000, the modder had to solder in her own. So the hack is not for the faint of heart, but it's confirmed working. Check out the how-to and some photos of the action. [tnkgrl]
