Nah, can't see the Easter Egg being WiMax!
many wimax chips are wlan/wimax combo chips.

A capacitive circuit, so the battery can be hot swapped?

That would be really cool -- some old Powerbooks have that, I think -- but would it not be noticed already by people who have gone over the FCC filings?

not sure since a charge/battery circuit probably isn't covered in the testing the FCC did..

I liked Millhouse's idea re: the magnetic lock/sleep switch.

We've got to look elsewhere for the 'easter egg', assuming it is a hardware feature at all.
Didn't the FCC testing include the gps receiver? Why did they have to test that, considering the above argument?
