The specs: Dell "Inspiron" B130; Windows XP; 512MB shard memory; Intel® Pentium® M 735 Processor (1.70GHz, 400MHz FSB, 2MB Cache; 3 usb ports; Express Cards slot (54mm); 56 K v92 Modem; Integrated 10/100 Ethernet; A wireless card installed but not sure whether it's a Dell 1370 or a Dell 1470; 40 Gig HD.
If the built-in wireless card isn't what you need, you are screwed. The Express Card slot is brand new, and no one makes wireless cards for it yet. New laptops have this slot, but it is currently useless. There's nothing to plug in, and the only effective adapter is $200.
This means that the laptops currently being sold (nearly all of them) CANNOT get Verizon wireless Internet.
