I'm doing some research and some websites say that the x200 tablet has a capacitive multitouch screen while others say it doesn't. I'm completely confused here.

If the x200 tablet doesn't have it, then what about the x201?

I've also read about an x210 tablet comming up? Is that true? If so, will that be this year and what could be the improvements. I'm willing to wait until xmas for a better laptop if the improvements are notable.

Thanks for the help!

All those websites are correct.
There are different models with different screens. The model with capacitive screen is called Enhanced Multitouch.

Great! Thanks AvalonXIII. I see that at the Lenovo website there's only the Enhanced version right now for the x200 tablet multitouch, so that should be the one. However, the X201 doesn't say enhanced but I assume the capacitive screen comes standard on the Multitouch x201.

I'm still a little bit on the fence because the x200 series is already 1+ year old. I wonder if another x tablet is coming up that I should hold up for...

I just upgraded from an x61 to a x200 and I don't feel the need to wait for the next version of the x200.

That's good to hear. I currently have one T61 fully loaded with a 2.2 core 2 duo which performs great and a X41 Tablet. I want to consolidate the two into one powerful tablet. I wonder if the X200's 1.86ghz processor will suffice.
