    Does anyone if it would be possible to transplant a T400s/SL410/SL510 multi-touch trackpad to a T400 and gain the multi-touch features?

    Anybody got an idea? I don't own a Thinkpad (yet); mine is on order. I've played with the trackpad on the SL410 at Best Buy and I really liked it over the regular trackpads (i.e. my wife's T40).

    Is it possible?

    I can't verify this info so I apologize if this is wrong, but I've read somewhere around this forum that the T400s and the T400 use the same touchpad, but the T400 touchpad is more crippled via BIOS.
