Toshiba's Tecra M9 laptop to get HSDPA?

Granted, nothing looks to be set in stone just yet, but if FCC documentation leads to results, Toshiba's Tecra M9 could be getting HSDPA. Apparently, the FCC has tested a version of the lappie with a WWAN module built right in, and more specifically, the test reports show that a module manufactured by Tyco Electronics is the culprit. The "CDMA Cell-PCS Module" reportedly supports GSM 850/1900, GPRS, EGPRS, WCDMA 850/1900, and WCDMA+HSDPA, and while we've no idea when these newly-equipped machines will be launching, it ought not be long now.

either the pic is wrong, or that's just half the story. the pic clearly shows "HSPA," which is really the combination of hsDpa and hsUpa.

Whenever someone uses the term "lappie", God kills a kitten.
