Hi,

i'm about to buy a Lenovo ThinkPad X200 Tablet. Model Number is "7453-AM2".

The Problem is, the seller is talking about a Touchscreen wich is only usable with one finger. If i search Lenovo for the Model, i only find the one model with "Enhanced MultiTouch", wich should at least be capable of Pich-To-Zoom, e.g. two fingers, and one with no touch at all.

The Question now is: Was it available with that Enhanced MultiTouch and none at all, or is there also a model with "MultiTouch" (without the "Enhanced")?

I just want to surfe some websites in tablet mode, without the need of the Stylus. Pinch-To-Zoom would be nice for Photoshop and other things, but it's no "must have"...

All Enhanced Multitouch before Oct 2009 meant resistive single finger + stylus. After Sep 2009 Enhanced Multitouch meant capacitive two-finger pinch and zoom. To know for sure which Enhanced Multitouch is being offered, ask for the serial number, then do a Parts lookup, and compare the screen P/N to The definitive X200 Tablet LCD Panel resource. This screen business with the X200 Tablet is a real mess.
