Yes

Any 15" 1400x1050, 15" 1600x1200 or 15" 2048x1536 found on R50(p)/R51/T42(p)/T43(p)/T60(p) is flexview.
Also A31p had, while i'm unsure about the A31.

EDIT, seems as if it was available on the A30(p) and also A31 too according to http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Flexview
By the way, DBU (Display Business Unit) = former Idtech.

Flexviews were introduced only from A31p.

Actually, the first model offered with UXGA FlexView LCD was A30p. Some of the A30/A31 machines have 15" SXGA+ FlexViews, though.

Yes, I had one of these A31 SXGA+ Flexview and replaced it with a 15 inch T42 SXGA+ Flexview..

May I ask how you did it? I thought it's impossible since they have different connectors..

Is this T42p a flexview screen?
