X61t screen choices

#1 Post by dwilsonfl » Mon Sep 05, 2011 6:22 pm

There's a X61t FS on the forum now that needs a screen. What are the choices? Is the touchscreen a pricey, hard to obtain part?

Unless you've ripped apart a similar tablet before, I'd strongly advise against attempting screen swaps on X6x tablets. They are a horror show to work on in my limited experience.

Personally, if I were swapping a screen, I'd go for the SXGA+ one and call it a day. None of these panels - including XGA multitouch that you seem to be interested in - are easy to source on regular basis, but can be traced if you put your mind to it. Won't come cheap, though.
