    I just checked on Lenovo and found there are new options :

    P9500 2.53 GHz 25W
    PC DOS License

    Also, I saw the "No UWB" option, not sure why it was there.

    Price is still same for me though.

    It was an option initially and then they decided to take it down for about a month or so. Now I guess supplies must be available or it's piling up in order for Lenovo to offer this option again.

    I have been waiting for the P9500 forever but I have two questions:

    (1) I can't see the option on the US site. Did you see it on the US site?

    (2) Did you see the P9500 processor option? The T9500 processor is 35W - P9500 is 25W.

    sorry I meant P9500 .
    Yes I did see it on US site today, now its not there for some reason. Hopefully this is the sign that it will be available soon.
    btw, apart from wattage any other differences between P and T 9500?

    Sup guys! Just registered to post this...

    I saw the page in question and was able to configure a T400 and save the cart. The page is now only accessible when I try to "edit" the options. Otherwise, even after copying url and pasting to another window I get taken to the regular page

    Notice the weird memory configuration options, NO-OS option, free 4-year on-site warranty! :eek:

    something strange is going on...

    Think I should pull the trigger? 14 inch screen is kinda too small to me, was hoping for a W500 through CPP.
