Mk5's for 350 GBP are a rip off. Mk6's on the other hand not so much.
Just pulled the trigger on that MK6. :cheers:

Now to find GPS, emissive and 3g...

Emissive is trash waterproofing wise, don't go for it.

I have a Sierra Wireless Gobi 2000 mPCIe module that's yours for postage. I don't like WWAN or GSM networks in general due to the possibility of spying.

I really appreciate that, mate. I dont like WWAN either, but i need it for work. I'll send a PM your way in a bit.

Oh, I wasn't aware MK6 could take parts from so early models. I though maybe from the MK5 or possibly the MK4. But 1 2 3? Didnt know that.

I know about the waterproofing. But my CF-29 with emissive has done decently enough. And honestly, considering how much i write i probably need the better spacing of the emissive. But i'll wait for the machine to show up and give it a go with the stock keyboard first.

AFAIK the GPS only changed with the Mk2 and the Mk8 (Mk2 Sony became Leadtek and with the Mk8 it became uBlox)

Also, i'm quite sure that 19 already has WWAN in it!

I got the model number CF-191G50DE from the seller. Unless i'm reading the breakdown wrong it should only be WWAN ready.
