    Anyone know if the 13.3" TravelMate 8x72 will have a core i7 640LM model?

    Am comparing this to the Lenovo X201S if it has the i7 640LM as one of the available models or the T410S which has a core i5 right now.

    If the 8x72 has the core i7 640LM and a lower price than the X201s which is $1399 I may go for this one.

    The questions are the cpu configuration option and also will not having a roll bar and touchpad and trackpad and the like that the X201s has make a big difference?

    I know the Travelmate 8371 cover for the display wasn't built that well although in general the case was built quite nicely overall. I am wondering if this was changed on the 8x72 series.
