Did all X300/x301 come w/alps touchpad?

[piledriver]

I'm trying to track down a Synaptics touchpad for multitouch etc features.

Did any X300 or X301s come with Synaptics or were they all ALPS?

The x301 had two palm rests available - difference being the touchpad.
The x300 only lists one, probably Alps, but just a guess.

The more common is the Alps; the second is a Synaptics with Multitouch capabilities.
The Synaptics is FRU 45N5570. the Alps is FRU 44C4872.
I've had both & much prefer the Synaptics but out of six x30 machines I've had only one came with the Synaptic.

There is a long thread at the NBR Lenovo forum about them: http://forum.notebookreview.com/lenovo- ... touch.html

Thank you!
The palmrests are interchangeable x300<>x301, correct?

The multitouch may prove handy with win8 and Android-x86.

Multi touch only works with the x301.
I tried to swap it on a x300 but could not get it working.
