LF: T500 or similar; also, FT: T60 2623-D6U

Here's the deal: I love my T60, but could use something with a bit more graphics power.
My T60 is the 2623-D6U model, with a 1.83GHz Core Duo, 14" SXGA+ display, 3GB RAM, and 80GB 5400RPM hard drive with restore partition intact (XP Pro). It's in almost perfect condition; the screen is near mint, the trackpad has NO wear, the keyboard has very little shine at all (had a keyboard cover on for almost all its life, and never even touched the trackpad.). The casing is nearly flawless; there are no cracks anywhere, and I cannot find any scratches, either. The rubberized finish on the lid is nearly perfect; there isn't even significant corner wear. The only potential flaws I can think of with the machine is a ~1mm imperfection on the left side of the palm rest (came from the factory this way), and slight discoloration on the LCD cover where the large triangular sticker used to be (no wear). The machine has IBM logos throughout; no Lenovo name on the screen bezel, and an IBM label on the bottom cover (with Lenovo in tiny lettering in one place). The case stickers that said "Core Duo" and "Designed for XP" have been removed, with no damage/residue. In short, this computer has been a desk queen (computer version of a "garage queen" car?), and is probably just about the nicest looking T60 you're going to find, short of building one with all new parts.
The computer will ship with original 65W AC supply, in original box with documentation/extra Trackpoint nubs (unused)
Pictures on request/interest. Ships from Seattle, WA.
What I'm looking for: any Thinkpad in VERY good condition with a high screen resolution (no WXGA, please) and dedicated graphics significantly better than my X1300. Ideal would probably be a T400, but a R400 (or 15") would be fine too. I'd throw in cash to offset any cost difference in a trade. (If it's a sticking point, I could throw in the current hard drive (11-month old WD Black 7200RPM 320GB drive, under warranty for years to go) instead of the original drive; also can throw in a copy of Vista Business.) An outright purchase of your machine would work too (I could eBay the T60 if you're not interested), but my preference would be a trade. Also, I'd image this forum has a greater interest in a super-clean T60 than your average eBay shopper...
Never done a deal here, but have lots of perfect feedback on eBay buying+selling computers etc under "islander993t"
Let me know if you're interested; this is about as nice of a 14" T60 as you're going to find
