    did anybody order the 7-in-1 card reader with their t400? i was looking through the drivers for the t400 just today and i found only a driver for the "ricoh 4-in-1" card reader. this is also the same driver suggested by thinkvantage system update. this leads me to believe that i got a 4-in-1 card reader instead of the 7-in-1 card reader i ordered. what do you think?

    Its the same thing. Its advertised as a 7-in-1, but that includes the three formats of xD, effectively making it a 4-in-1.

    Are you sure its not MMC, SD, SDHC and Memory Stick for the 4-1?

    I think XD is only on the 7-1.

    My x200 Tablet has a 5-1 reader with MMC, SD, SDHC, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro [really only a 2-1 reader in my opinion, but I digress].
