WTB: Trackpoint caps, "Dished Top" style

#1 Post by dozer » Thu Jul 30, 2009 12:46 am

I'd like to get a few of those 'dished top' style caps.

I didn't even know they existed until a few days ago... :P ...when the R60 I just got showed up. My wife and I both said "Nice cap!".....so now we'd like to replace the standard 'dome' caps on our T60p and T61.

thanks!

Those are called "Soft Rim" caps, see the pic:

TrackPoint caps can be easily found on E-Bay. Be aware that besides the original ones made by IBM/Lenovo there is a lot of "fakes" with lower quality.

Yeah, wish I found that out before I bought... oh well.

Anyone need some fakes?
