    Ordered 9/11 and got an email notification about the shipment this morning. The original shipment date is 9/25.

    I see that you already have a T61 with nice specs. How much of a performance increase do you think you will get with the T500?

    Cool, my T500 also has a ship date of 9/25, but I did not receive any shipping notices today. Can you let me know if you have chosen the 6-cell or the 9-cell for your battery?
    My "RECYCLE FEE FOR PRODUCT WITH 15 TO 34 INCH DISPLAY" will ship today though. :D
    Thanks!

    That's probably why. I heard that 9-cells are really on demand nowadays. :(

    Jut got it today. T500 seems more solid than T61. The plastic under right palm is not so flex as in T61.

    I ordered vista business downgraded to XP Pro. There is NO extra DVD/CD.
