Good luck.

that's too much for the specs

If you want an X40 with nice specs, $600 can only give you a beat-up unit with no warranty, which might not last long and so you end up wasting money. I don't mean to brag but the $805 mint-condition X40 (1.2GHz/1.5GB/40GB/2yr IBM warranty left) that I sold yesterday is pretty much the best X40 that one can get.

I would avoid buying a very cheap X40/X41 too unless you know there is no problem. The repair cost is too high.

Yeah, an obvious example is the 1.8" HDD, which is three times the price of a 2.5" HDD. So it's much much better to have warranty coverage.
