A friend of mine owns a R51 while I got myself a T42p. Technically there is not much difference. One thing I noticed is the height of the notebook. The T42p is slimmer than the R51.

The thing I don't get is why they only offer firewire in R-series ThinkPads when the rest of the hardware is nearly identical...
It's a trick. Get an axe.

based on specification height different for 4 millimeters, yes?

about firewire - there is no firewire in other series ? like X T G ?

Yeah - that seems to fit but I'd have to measure to be sure :)

What I know for sure is that there's no T-series model with integrated firewire. I'm not sure about X and G series
