    Hey guys,

    I just received my t400 and when I was inserting the battery in the battery compartment, I noticed a little plastic film which has a blue tab with two arrows and a picture of a sim card next to the arrows. This film is on top of the sim card slot. I initially thought I was supposed to pull it out, so I pulled on it (rather excessively). And the plastic film came out partially (and will not go back in), but it is still attached to the system. I could post a picture if what I am saying is a little confusing.

    What is this plastic film for? And was I supposed to pull on it? And now that it is out partially, will it cause any issue?

    Also, I had another question regarding the parks look up website. When I enter my model type and serial number, no parts are listed. Is that because it is a new system? But I remember I was able to pull up the info for my last t61 right when it was shipped.

    Thanks guys!
