You need the no_whitelist 2510P modded_bios or otherwise will get an "104-unsupported" bios halting error. Might even require putting cellophane over pin20 to turn the radio on.

INFO: +2USB - add 2 extra USB ports via a US$10-delivered PCMCIA card

I noticed a 2510P sold for ebay for $212. This model had an extra 2 USB ports. This is considerably more than the ~$150 they go for usually.

A PC card to add an extra 2 USB ports to a 2510P costs only $10-delivered and sits perfectly flush in the system as shown below.
