Bill,

Thanks for that link. So it seems the X31 has definitely been "canned".
However, what do they mean by the T40 being its successor? I am sure that has to be a typo and they mean X41.

Even more confusion: So most of the T43 line (unless you go for a top of the line T43 or a T43p) will have integrated graphics? Crap... :cry:

for some STRANGE reason, ibm seems to push only the low end express models and not the top end thinkpads..
now some might take me to task over relating the express models to the low end, but at the higher end of express models i can USUALLY meet that price..

give it a week or so for things to settle out..

the new TABOOK arrived last night and shows the top end thinkpads will ship in APRIL??! yes april..
true? i don't know..

will know more in a week or so..

They also say "We asked why the wonderful X31, barely over 2 pounds in weight, had been canned." Barely over 2 pounds???
OK, right, another typo!
