    I don't see it anywhere. Is it still possible to get? Ideally I'd like bluetooth but none of them see to have that either but the camera is a deal breaker.

    I'm choosing between this and the new Sony FWs.

    I see the R series has the camera. What is the difference between the R and th T?

    The T series is the higher end model while the R series is the lower end consumer model. Unfortunately the T61 doesn't have a webcam.

    Only the 14 inch T61 has the option for a webcam. Like above it might be best to wait.

    Ah I see...I wonder why the 15" models don't have the option for a web cam. I wish I would have gotten one with my laptop. I had to order one separately.

    Eh, don't fret about it. The integrated webcam is sub-par quality.
