ThinkPad T500 Palmrest Question

#1 Post by HIMAN1998 » Fri Aug 09, 2013 2:59 pm

My T500 has a normal palmrest with no fingerprint reader. If I bought one with the reader and installed it, would the fingerprint reader work?

Yes. All the motherboards have the required biometric coprocessor

OK good. I need a new palmrest anyways, the current one has a crack in it and is worn down some. I might go ahead and buy a new keyboard, too.
