    My 14.1" T61 config is ready to buy....except for the WXGA+ screens. Where are they?

    My friend notified me that Lenovo is out of stock of the 14.1" WXGA+ screens. I'd really rather have one of those instead of the 1280x800 WXGA screens.

    I've searched around and I can't find anything. Anyone have any idea when they'll have the WXGA+ screens again?

    Well right now I this configured:

    2.2GHz Core 2
    2GB ram
    100GB 7200rpm drive
    Quadro 140M

    and a few other things here and there. It comes out to about $1270 after my employee discount, and actually gets lower with something on SlickDeals that i found.

    How much do you think prices will go up after these deals are over, and how much more on top of that do you think the WXGA+ screen would be over WXGA?


    I don't want to end up getting screwed here....

    If you are an emplyee of IBM/Lenovo, how can you not know what's going on with Lenovo sales. They are just a phone call away.

    I get employee discounts, but not because I work for IBM. Perhaps he does as well.
