I think ALL CF-19s have WWAN antennas built-in? My mk5 doesn't have "wings" but it has WWAN antennas. Are the wings just for RF exposure limits? If so, then my old mk3 had half-wings whereas my mk5 doesn't have wings at all. And it looks like there are different WWAN antennas as well. I'm ...

So this isn't proper scientific/100% aligned and my ruler is kinda off, but I tried my best to look perfectly square to the screen.. and well, here you go... so the mk5-7 screens ARE smaller than the mk1-4!

The edge in the middle of the border area is the edge of the screen protector.

Just bought myself a mk5 off eBay to replace my mk3. Are the older mk1/2 screens interchangable with the mk5's "circulumen" screen? For whatever reason I think the new mk5's screen looks dimmer at full brightness and it looks a bit washed out (less contrast) than the mk3. This is even duri...

Manual install through Device Manager doesn't find any...

Depending on what it spits out, Franson GPSGate is a great little program to translate protocols, baud rates and share GPS through various virtual COM ports. You can use a Garmin GPS on an NMEA-only reading program, or the other way around too. I use it to share GPS stream to Delorme Atlas and GRLev...

Did you install that display driver from Intel? Try uninstalling that. The display driver was the source of Fn issues on Windows 7 on my CF-30. The display drivers for the Toughbook are modified and not stock.

Windows 8.1 Pro confirmed working on my CF-19KHRAGAM including the Sierra Wireless MC7700 WWAN aircard! videonerd-win8cf19mk3.png Essentially just download the Windows 8 64 bit drivers for the CF-19 mk7, and follow the installation PDF. Windows will prefer some of its own drivers over the Panasonic-...

FINALLY got a response from Sierra Wireless (if you're an end user, all they'll say is "contact your distributor" to even mundane questions)
... there is NO miniPCIe card for 2600MHz LTE in Canada. Your only option is the external 330U USB aircard.
