T410 Manual? How does media card reader work?

#1 Post by masterbeat » Fri Feb 26, 2010 1:50 am

Loving my T410, but I'm a bit disappointed in the documentation that came (none). In my previous ThinkPads, there was excellent help documentation online that explained the hardware, as the printed documentation became less and less (and now none.)

I'm trying to figure out how to use the media card reader which I'm assuming is the slot in the lower front right facing foward. Isn't it supposed to read SD cards and memory sticks? Lenovo site advertises media reader. Next, what is the slot with a plastic cover on the right side towards the front, next to the headphone jack? Is this an express card slot? How do you get the cover off?

Thanks for any help on how these work and where to find documentation. I can't find real user manuals on Lenovo's site under Manuals for T410 either - just regulator notices and a mainenance guide.

Disappointed the ThinkVantage button now only launches this bloated "Toobox" software- what happened to the ThinkPad help documenation and menus that used to launch on T61's?

My T410 hasn't arrived yet, so I can only go by the pictures, Yes the front right slot under the lid latch is the card reader. Not sure what media it reads, but should at least read SD cards.

The slot on the right hand side next to the headphone jack is the ExpressCard/34 slot.
