I had the same thought and was just looking at the manuas on the Dell web site. As far as I can see there isn't one. There's a group of three buttons on the right above the keyb and the left most of those is labelled "Windows Mobility Center" which may be the closest but of course is not likely to work under linux. It looks like one of those soft-keys rather than a switch.

I think there's a daemon available that can be configured to run a script when a specified soft key is pressed. I don't know whether these particular keys are supported; the script would have to do the closest thing to temporarily disabling wifi that can be done.
