Thinkpads Forum

I'm waiting until the first reviews hit the net before buying. A lot has changed. New keyboard, new processor, everything!

I am eagerly waiting as well. It's hard to believe that no one has done a review yet. I found this video on youtube

I'm stoked...I've had a Dell 700m since 2004, my first and only laptop...till the T410!

sweet deal... i wonder if i can find similar ones in the US.. i would do a cancel and reorder..

man, i understand that lenovo customer service is busy now with the introduction of the new lines...but 31 min. of waiting to find out if my order had been processed is a little ridiculous. all of the posts that i've read with regard to their poor CS are starting to ring a little louder in my head...but...it should be shipping in 11 days! i'm geeked up and never thought a piece of electronics could get me so obsessed and enthused...what happened to me?

Just found a Visa deal for the USA...I'm buying mine now!

dang, gzlatin...you're deal is better up to 35%. gonna post to all.

Just got off the phone with CSR. I ordered Sat. Jan. 16. My estimated ship date is Feb. 1, and it should take 5-7 business days from there. So I'm looking at 2nd week of Feb for a Canadian destination.

Junkeeroo, thanks for the heads up on the deal. I just ordered my new T410 about 30 seconds ago. The configuration is as follows:

It came to 1353.12 CAD, which is a fantastic price for such a loaded system I think. And now I wait with eager anticipation.

Is the led screen glossy ? I think my t510 shipped, got a notice today but the status online is unchanged, original notice was 2/16. The GF wants a new notebook so I'm looking at the t410..

T410 screen is mate ( or anti-glare as mentioned in tabook ). I do notice T400 LED WXGA+ screen is rated at 250 nits, where as same size LED on T410 is only rated at 220 nits. Wonder how big of a difference in real life.

nice calls, tony and dcast...and you're welcome.

i spoke with CSR yesterday. i paid online sat. jan. 18 and they say mine will be shipping feb. 1 and that it'll take about 5-7 biz days to get to toronto. fingers crossed and limbering up!

I just ordered a T410 to replace my third failed Dell D series. I already have the Ideapad Y series that I ordered for a family member. It is very nice and will suit her well but really isn't my style. I look forward to a better experience than I have had with Dell, and prior to them Gateway.

It's been in Anchorage for the last two days, according to the tracking data.

I just got a shipping notice for my T410, so it should be here next week!

I ordered two T410s' on 1/7. Expected ship date was 1/19 and is now 2/12. The order status hasn't changed, my credit card hasn't been billed, and a quick call to Lenovo reveals that my order has "hanged." Something about being rejected by the factory and escalated to the executive level... Patience is a virtue...

Guys, just make sure you write some reviews and maybe even take some photos when you get your machines.

The community will be very thankful.

Seeing as how I am a total Thinkpad newb, not sure I will be of much use with regard to review, but photos will be doable.

I like the Ideapad Y450, for what it's worth. It really isn't my style but it seems well constructed and very, ummm, fashionable. The fit and finish are somewhat better than the Dells I am accustomed to. Good, solid MM box. Love the LED screen and the WLAN connectivity is yards better than the Dell. I was disappointed with the volume of bloatware, but that is unavoidable in this day and age.

Right now there are no reviews so you don't have much competition . Just tell us about your impressions, build quality, display quality and so on. It will be very helpful.

Yes, and do take some photos

My T410 shipped today!

I ordered it on 1/19 and it shipped on 1/27...ahead of the scheduled ship date of 2/2. Not too bad!

Mine shipped today! a solid week ahead of the 2/8 est ship date. w00t! (Now being home at the same time the UPS guy decides to show up is a whole other issue.)

T410, 2516CTO, yes it has discrete graphics.
Shipped Jan 27 2010
UPS thinks it'll arrive on Feb 3 2010, I had the expedited two day shipping selected... (Bummer)

if anyone's looking for first glance test results on the new t410, there are two made here:

one in of a disrete model, the other is of the integrated one.

personally, when comaring the results, i see a minor performance delta in favour of th discrete one.

and just for kicks, http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeF ... 949.0.html

It's impressive the GMA is on par with ION/macbook pro.
But the 3100M is, much faster, by 3dmark anyway.

Can't wait to see realistic gaming performance though
