Lenovo PC Card & Smart Card Slots question

#1 Post by icantux » Sat Feb 23, 2008 5:23 pm

Anyone here have a pic of their T61(p) with the PC Card/SmartCard Slot option?

Does this option still involve the availability of 2 PC Card slots with a Smart Card slot beneath all this?

Or is there only 1 PC card slot and the other some sort of permanent SmartCard slot? (Which wouldn't make much sense, because Lenovo offers the Gem400 smart card reader as an option otherwise.

Also, does the Smart Card slot come with a filler card (to keep dust out)?

Cheers

Last thing...

The smart card slot - does it come with a filler (dummy) card or is the slot come empty?

MY T60 has a PC card and Express card slot. It didnt come with a filler slot, but if they make one, I'd like to order it.

I could be wrong but I have never come across any IBM filler card. My old Dell D600 came with one.
