Hey folks. I can finally use my MK5 regularly now. When I bought this a short while ago, temperatures would regularly soar towards boiling point when CPU was working hard so I tried not to use it too often. During a recent heat wave the thing would actually shut down on me. I've read a lot on the su...

My MK3 29HTM50BM has a corner antennae that leads into the PC card bay. However my MK5 is a 29NBLGZBM. Once I get serious into looking for parts I'll post in the CF29 section.

Re: kode-niner intro

I guess the simple question to ask in this case is, what do T-Mo WCDMA users do?

I don't have many posts there either, but me and Jeff may have had a discussion or two in NBR already since I joined a month ago.
