I need a 3 parts for a 14in T41 system:

1. optical drive. Don't care if it's DVDRW or DVDROM, as long as it works and fits T4x systems it's all good <<< NEED 1 MORE
2. SXGA+ video cable for a 14in T4x screen. Please note, it's the 1440x1050 cable, not the regular 1024x768. I have the regular, can trade that as part of the deal too <<<GOT IT
3. keyboard for a 14in system. Basically, I need the plastic mouse piece that goes underneath the read rubber dot. It's for FRU 08k5044. Will take whole working keyboards as long as they fit the 14in T41 unit, otherwise that plastic part is fine, I can fix the existing keyboard then <<<GOT IT

I can either pay cash (paypal) or trade for parts or a combo of the above. I have several different T4x and T2x parts available, just ask me. Also have other miscellaneous laptop and desktop parts too. Let me know what you have and what you need. Thanks.

Note: updated with parts I got.

Alright, got keyboard on eBay and a DVDROM drive here.

Still looking for that SXGA+ cable. Are these so difficult to come by?

Thanks! I was only able to find one for about $50 on eBay which was way too much. Looks like the one you suggesested is the right cable.

Any time. Don't go crazy looking for parts, send me a PM or something. I've gotten fairly decent at looking up parts, with an exception or two here and there. The better deal is at thinkpad-parts.com I think, unless they charge an arm and a leg for shipping.

Will do from now on. Will also try to not bother you too much with these.

Thinkpad-parts want $9.99 for shipping which essentially makes it the same kind of deal as the on eBay. Got the one on eBay. I might be interested in another DVD drive though. Will fix original post accordingly.
