Terrific performance for its size without too many compromises
After using it for 10 days, I still can’t believe how good this little guy is! Its maxed out memory of 5GB is plenty for running lots of tabs in Firefox and Chrome simultaneously, its 1.6 Core 2 Duo is plenty powerful enough for most things and its backlit keyboard means I often use it in bed at night, in the dark, in preference to its bigger, heavier and more powerful brothers. The battery is pretty decent altho I know at some point I'll get the car charger and/or the 6 cell battery slice. Its 64 bit and has a Win 7 Ultimate COA, much better than I was expecting for a machine of its age.
Its 1280 x 800 display is bright and beautiful, and it really feels like Dell have managed to make this a sized down Latitude without significant compromises. You don’t expect a CD drive on a machine of this size and the only thing that is definitely different is that due to size constraints it won’t take a regular 2.5 drive and uses a special internal uSATA SSD, but this is accessible via the back panel and not vastly expensive to replace.
The wireless N card will get a max of 300Mbps where supported and I might try an Intel 7200 at some point to see if I can get an AC 866Mpbs connection at home.

Great card, great experience
I bought one of these for under $15 on eBay and liked it so much I bought a second.
The story is that I have been waiting for over 10 years for an easy and affordable way to get a laptop online anywhere using the cellphone network and feel this card finally delivers on that. No more expensive lattes at Starbucks just to use their wireless. No more tethering my laptop to my iPhone and the rebooting laptop and/or phone until they decide to recognize each other.
The download speed of 100mbps is supposedly the same as my iPhone 5s and it does feels like it, very acceptable. Card installs easily into the internal WWAN port and you can find drivers online pretty easily. Took the nano sim out of the family iPad which doesnt need it as it is only used at home on wireless, bought a quality sim card adapter on ebay so nano sim becomes regular sim card size, insert sim into sim card slot within battery compartment in back of laptop, AT&T network appears at top of wireless menu, click on connect and you're connected to AT&T 4G LTE. No passwords, no mess, very easy.
Downsides, I have a bunch of Dell Latitudes of different vintages and this card only works on e6230 and e6330 which date from around 2013. It wont work on my older beloved e6410's or e4310 which is a shame.
Also you'll need a good data plan as you'll chew thru data pretty quickly using a laptop on cellular service, especially if you watch videos. We have a family plan with plenty of data, but I still like to send a text message on my phone to *3282# afterwards to check how much data I used.
Now I can roam freely with my laptop and go online/write/upload my scribblings to DropBox from anywhere with cellphone service. Next up will be a 7000 series Latitude with a Snapdragon x7 cellular modem with 300mbps download, but that's going to be a while ....

Better in theory than practice
Tried in several laptops and very fiddly/difficult to set up due to tiny connectors and size restrictions in most laptops which don't have extra space for the black connector leads. Finally got it working with several different AC1300 routers, and it would connect between 866-1300. Windows file transfers would show 65-85Mbps compared to 90Mbps for a wired Gigabit connection or 40Mbps for an Intel AC7260. Not bad, was just hoping for more. An Intel AC7260 at half the price is probably a better deal.
