Title says it all. Does the s12 have a multitouch trackpad?

So realistically how can I expect these two screens to compare to either the one on my Dell D630 or my old t42?

I never really had any objections to the screen on the t42, but this dell is terrible. It seems to only have black and not shades of grey.

Why it supposed to be ? Both are TN crap panel. Typical "contrast" of current notebook displays is 150:1, so ...

I thought the x200s was LED?

is the x200s screen much better then the one on the x200? I have heard lots of negative reviews on the screen of the x200 and am a little concerned about ordering since I can't see these machines before ordering. I'd be willing to spend the extra if it means getting a good display. My current machin...

Not quite, I don't care for the MacOS, but I don't care for how vista runs on the Mac Hardware. Trackpad support is a mess. Not that I don't care for Vista.

Like I said, I do like the LED screen and have heard some complaints about the LED screen on the x200 so I am wondering how they compare.

I know it is a long shot, but has anyone been able compare the screen on the new thinkpad? I am typing this on a new MacBook, I am less then impressed with the MacOS, and even less impressed with its Vista compatibility. One thing I am impressed is with the screen. I have heard some negatives about ...

So the 5100 does not support 802.11n in the 5ghz range?

I wasn't able to find out the details yet, other then that neither supports compact flash.

what is the difference between the 3-1 and the 5-1 w/model. Besides the obvious modem. The "help me choose" link doesn't elaborate.

Does the intel 5300 or 5100 support dual band 802.11n. I am looking to get off of 2.4ghz but it looks like 802.11a routers are becoming hard to come by.

Does AT&T offer a daily option like verizon does for WWAN? I only need it once in a while and would love to not subscribe for a monthly plan.

So, I am thinking about replacing my aging t42 and a shiny new x200, but I of course have some questions first mainly around the fact that I would like to avoid purchasing the dvd drive and base. 1. My old machine did not come with a recovery cd. Can anything else be used besides the dvd burner to c...

Go with the 2373-M3U, it has almost everything you are looking for but with a "14 screen.

I have a 2373-M3U, the machine will occasionally freeze for a split second or two. Not sure what is causing this but the 2373-K1U that I returned recently did the same thing. anyone have any ideas?

Does it drain the ultrabay battery or the primary battery first?

How much extra time does this battery provide? I have a 2373m3u with the 6cell battery. How does it compare to having just the 9cell battery? I don't use the dvd much so I am thinking that it may be a good compromise since it won't change the form factor of the machine.

I got it to work. I paired the phone using the IBM driver. When I loaded motorola mobile phone tools, I skipped the automatic detection and selected the phone manually from the available "modems" I can now sync my phonebook with outlook.

Hi, I am trying to get motorola mobile phone tools and my T42 to talk to each other. Mobile phone tools can't seem to locate my V551 when I put it in discoverable mode. The IBM bluetooth panel seems to be able to find it but that only lets me use the phone as a modem. The motorola stuff is supposed ...

just got it. Not a bad pixel to be seen. Screen will take some getting used to due to the small fonts. But I am impressed.

You say it used to work? Could you try a system restore point?

I know that receiving a new TP is a very exciting time. And we've all experienced the seeming indeterminable wait for it to arrive. But is it really necessary to share with us the details of its trip from warehouse to your hands? I hate to be a curmudgeon about this. If you don't like it don't read...

that's what it means.. you will have it shortly.. I got an email today that it shipped. Wonder if that means Monday or Tuesday delivery from HK. Going to have to take the morning off since I don't trust UPS not to just leave on the door. Hope I have the tracking number tomorrow. Web site says its a...

Just ordered a 2373-M3U thanks for all your help. Its backordered about 2weeks, but it should be worth the wait. Jeff Jeff, you may be a happy ThinkPad owner much sooner than you expect. The IBM web site showed a similar two week wait for a T42 2373-M3U when I recently ordered one. The emailed orde...

jmagbita, that's great! =) I placed my order yesterday (2nd March). At that time, they didn't have any in stock. Been checking my order status during the day. First the estimated shipping date was the 17th of March. Now its the 14th! Keeping my fingers crossed. Just ordered mine, It currently says ...
