    Flexview only comes on the 15" models.
    As for whether or not it's a good deal... is subjective. I think it's a pretty good deal... it IS a ThinkPad afterall.

    If you limit yourself to T-series only, you will have Flexview on any 15" SXGA+ (1400x1050) or UXGA (1600x1200) that comes on any of the following models: T42,T42p,T43,T43p,T60,T60p. And only on them. This should answer your question and any future questions, as I see you don't seem to be considering other models, like the R-series (some of which also have Flexview).

    well, I bought my T43 on ebay brand new in box. compared to that link, it adds the 15" SXGA (Flexview) screen, loses the fingerprint reader and 9-cell battery, and cost me $1450 shipped.

    I dont see anymore R51 series on the current IBM website with FlexView, only R51e with regular lcds. The R52 don't have FlexView as well.
