Just to be clear, this thread was discussing the X1, not the X1 Carbon.
The X1 Carbon is quite a bit lighter at just under 3lbs and is better a better screen/battery etc.

The web price for the base model is actually lower at 1250.

There is a 720p webcam on all models.

You're right, it's not that difficult but I don't ship large things often. Anyway, I've contacted the first buyer in line.

Thanks,
Jon

Update: There are several buyers lined up to purchase this. However, I have not been able to get to the post office yet to get a shipping estimate. It looks like I won't have time to format/pack and ship it out until the new year. Sorry for the inconvenience.

All PMs replied to.
I won't have time to ship this out until after Christmas day by the way.

Here are pics since a few people asked.

I have a T61p that I used primarily at home. It was top of the line back when the T61 series just came out complete with additional accessories. However it is now suffering from a failed fan and shuts down when overheated. I bought a fan off of ebay and tried to replace it myself but ended up stripp...

Hard to know what you're talking about without pictures and the video isn't that clear.

Out on a limb, could you be referring to the thermal paste/thermal grease that is on the CPU and GPU? It's gray and some may leak out onto the sides of the CPU/GPU.

I wouldn't do actual case mods, but changing LED colour and painting the keyboard does sound intriguiging. Sadly, for the former the colour that would interest me (white) would require surface-mount soldering that I am not nearly enough pro for. I am not sure how well the latter would work given th...

I was considering using black vinyl dye to paint all the keys black. Basically I wanted to remove the lettering from all the keys so they're blank.

I modded my IBM Model M keyboard in the same way a while back.

I'm interested. How much shipped to Canada?

I hope Lenovo releases a new BIOS soon because I updated to 2.17 and I've been getting BSODs every couple days... I'm pretty sure its related because its the only thing that's changed.

Just a guess.. probably wrong.. correct video drivers?

What's the part no.?
T4x or T6x?

You can also disable it via BIOS.

I don't have everest but running CPU-Z, I get a Vcore rating bouncing between 1.25 to 1.338V as well on my T61p 15.4" T9300 3GB 200GB 7200rpm.

I had the same dilemma. I ended up choosing the 15.4" for the graphics card and the widescreen resolution. I carry it to school every day in my backpack and it is noticeably heavier than my X41t (obviously). However, I quickly got used to it over a week or so. I've seen the 14.1" T61p and well.. I l...

I find that the audio on my T61p is very adequate.
Like... having everything turned to max, I can't stand it because I find it way too loud.

I have the opposite complaint. The hinge on my T61p is TOO stiff. On all my old laptops, they were solid enough so the screen didn't wobble but loose enough so that I could lift up the screen without having to hold the front palmrest (weight balanced). With the T61, I have to hold the front palm res...

I understand you want protection from heavy textbooks and objects... but hey, its a Thinkpad! That in itself is more than enough protection for a lot of people (esp. with the T61's magnesium roll cage that looks like a deathstar and what not). I carry my T61p around in a thin sleeve along with heavy...

What are the exact prices? Are you sure you can't get a T61p at a similar price? They're not that expensive.

Man thats a rare find! Doesn't look like he even ships to Canada though so out of luck for me. Hopefully someone here gets it so they can post a nice little review.

Hey, I ordered a new T61p from Lenovo last month and received it yesterday. I opened it but realized that 15.4" is bigger than I'm comfortable with (long time X-series user). I was going to return this to Lenovo but figured I'd see if I could pass on my EPP family and friends savings to anyone here....

Sweet! Thanks for the pics, I hope it will come in a non-ssd version thats more affordable.

Willing to ship to Canada? If so, how much?

Will you ship to Canada?

And I'd be interested in seeing some pics

I ran vista for a while on my 1.5ghz x41t with 1.5gb ram.

It ran pretty smooth but as you said, Intel GMA 915 doesn't work with Aero. That being said, I didn't find the tablet features significantly better and without Aero I really saw no reason to run Vista so I went back to XP

You don't need any special software to do it, it's just a simple registry edit (assuming you're on Windows).

But replace the scancode with the following:

Maybe this isn't the same as your situation, but I have a X41 Tablet running NHC to undervolt. It runs fine most of the time but sometimes when I bring the pen to the screen, I get BSOD. I guess it is because of a sudden jump in voltage. I have since increased my voltage to create a safe 'buffer' zo...
