Thank you for the schematic but I cannot recognize the wifi module in
the lower left corner. In the middle left is a black rectangle that
has "Realtek" printed on it. Is this the module? 

I asked my computer geek if he would be willing to desolder the wifi
from Sunlike AllWinner A10 1 GB netbook. He replied he could destroy
the motherboard and didn't want to risk it.

To answer the question what I budget is, I estimate $700 including
shipping. Previously, I paid more for laptops but they are fragile. I
have had two cracked screens, one broken DVD player, one broken power
adapter plug and two broken keyboards. Main problem has been theft. 

Thanks for recommending the EOMA-68 CPU Card. I looked at Rhombus
Tech's website. EOMA-68 will have wifi. Only AllWinner that will not
have wifi is the Olimex A13. Wifi will be optional. Olimex A13 will
only have 512 MB. It may be a long wait for an Olimex A13.
