I took a look around the net and found video of disassembly of the notebook. It's quite straightforward, and it uses a normal miniPCIe wifi/bluetooth card. You could replace it with an Intel or Atheros unit -- the most complicated bit is attaching the screw-down antennae, which requires good eyesight and a steady hand. -dsr-
