I have a bunch of older minidocks used with T60, T61, T62, and Z60. Will these old minidocks work with the new t400s? Whether or not the DVI works doesnt really matter to me. I just need it to dock and charge, provide usb ports, and provide network ports.

No. Connector is physically different.

T400 will work. T400s won't.

For whatever it's worth, I believe the $200 or so investment is well worth it. I believe I bought the Advanced Mini-Dock (not home right now to verify), but I've had no issues and it came with an e-SATA connector that I'm planning to use with an external HDD. Additionally, with HD monitors becoming so affordable, you can more fully take advantage of their capabilities.
