T61 15.4 NVIDIA 140M Ship Dates

Mine had an extra three months until yesterday when it was changed to what it should have been.

 

Where did you check your warranty status and what information do you need to access it?

 

Did you get yours yet? Is parts look up working for you?

Warranty information is found on parts look up. On the "results" screen, click get warranty information.

Description:
This product has a three year limited warranty and is entitled to IBM EZServ service. Customers may call their local service center for more information. Dealers may provide carry-in repair for this product. Batteries have a one year warranty.

I never paid for an extended warranty. I ordered with EPP discount, but I don't think that includes a three year warranty. BUT I'LL TAKE IT!!!!

 

Nice...i wish they messed up on mine like yours!

xnviews...go to your order status page..on the left there is a thing called warranty info..and it'll ask you for your type and serial number.

Sweet, I guess I have a 3 year warranty. Even though I only bought one year! Awesome! Unless it's a glitch...

 

Wow..how are you guys managing this? They gave me the standard 1 year...

did you guys pay extra or something?

 

My reroute request just went though. I would have had it today if I didn't need to reroute it. I'll get it whenever it gets to me half way across the country. It shouldn't take too long since it's express. I hope to have it by Wednesday or Thursday.

 

Nope. I paid less with EPP.

Did you purchase with EPP like I did? I wonder why they gave us 3yrs.

 

I meant..did you guys pay extra for warranty or upgrade it? I also paid with EPP

 

^^^^^^

 

Well that's awesome...I'm glad you guys are benefiting....I, however, am getting the short end of the stick...so called worst screen, worst keyboard, and the standard warranty...what have I done to piss Lenovo off?

You would think they would offer the better stuff to EPP consumers as those are the most likely to stick with thinkpads forever

 

Well during configuration of my system the last item on the first page was warranty. The choices were all there for onsite and depot for between 1 and 4 years. The price of all of them was 0.00. I chose 4 years (duh) then on the next page I added the TPP for 143.00. My laptop was purchased through the education/states portal. The default warranty is typically 3 years from computer companies.

 

Funny...I never got that option..all my warranty upgrades had prices next to them

 

Of course it could be some sort of mistake, but I tried it again and it is still there.

 

I think were good on the warranty, I got 3 years thinkpad accidental by mistake!

Any idea what LCD this is LP154W02-TL06 (from pcwizrd)

 

Very odd...I went to the normal t61 15 inch..and then the one with the nvidia...still doesnt show anything...this is via EPP BTW

What portal are you using?

 

googled it and it shows LG...try googling it w/o the TL06 at the end

 

sweet! I"m showing the NVIDIA 140M w/ 512 total mem ? is that right?

 

Online purchase side using state of Louisiana not faculty, staff, and/or student.

 

What FRU did you have?

 

How do you know you have the worst screen? Did you get your laptop yet? Otherwise it's impossible to know if you have an LG or Samsung. Chicony also isn't bad and many people like it or have no complaints. Also have you checked what warranty you have? I signed up for a one year. I purchased through education and I didn't know I had a 3 year warranty until I checked it. I assume we have 3 year warranties because of parts shortages delaying our orders. When they upgraded us from expedited to express they might have also changed our warranties from 1 year to 3 years. Just a guess.

 

It's probably 512 MB total which is 128 MB dedicated + 386 MB virtual. So I'm pretty sure they didn't give you 512 MB of dedicated.

 

My package is in San Diego today and the reroute was put in today and I called UPS and they said the expected delivery date is tomorrow even though it needs to travel half way across the country! Smokin' fast!

 

my package has been in transit to louisville since the 18th... grr

 

Where do you find this number?

 

Look in the properties of your video card. You'll eventually find the window that has the number listed. It's useless to know though.

 

How can I get the number?

 

At the warrenty lookup page after you have done the lookup for your machine, click the button that says something like "show parts list for this machine."

Then it shows you a list of parts, your LCD will have its own number.

 

Eyecon82 said he got the Samsung screen on his. It would have been nice if he posted that here instead of creating other threads about it.

 

I'm still waiting for mine to ship. Order date 7/20, est. ship date 8/24.

That's weird, I ordered the same time as you. I wonder what's holding up your order. Maybe WWAN?

 

Finally, my package made it to lousiville... being held by customs, but it should arrive tomorrow!

 

Mine was ordered 7/18 with ship date of 8/20. My computer is the same exact specs as the original poster too.

I got an email this morning that my shipment has been delayed 1-30 days.

 

What screen/keyboard do you have?

 

Like I've said before...

I've got the ALPS keyboard

And the FRU is incorrect on my parts list: 42T0423 (I've posted a screen shot)

I am really hoping for LG!!!!

 

I'm in the same boat you are, except I ordered 7/24.

I read somewhere in the t61p thread that people were expecting shipments to go out on 8/23, so hopefully it goes through then.

 

Ordered on the 15th and recieved it today. Very quick service I must say! Beautiful laptop although I love the screen, there is a dead pixel almost in the middle of the screen. Going by my experience with my R51 with the IPS screen and it had stuck pixels which have disappeared over time, so hopefully this will be gone too. Anyway it really doesn't bother me since it's hardly noticeable even on a white background. First thing I did after receiving it was to remove the Vista and Intel stickers.

I think I have the Chicony KB since the feel is really springy, but it has a nice feel to it. No keyboard flex so I'm very happy. Oh and the best part is that I have the 3 year warranty on it without paying for it. Monitor FRU: 42T0422 42T0423 , Keyboard FRU:
42T3241 42T3273

 

Can you please run pcwizard to see who made your LCD? I have that same FRU but can't confirm a manufacture anywhere!

I'm pretty sure they will update your warranty to reflect what you paid for it -- they did mine.

Als

 

http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php is the link

 

Thanks for the link. It says LP1504W02-TL06. So what is it, LG or Sammy?

 

google works wonders

 

Yes thanks for the revelation but I already tried google and it didnt give me the info.

 

you sure about that? maybe you have a little typo

hint:take out the first zero

you didnt paste it in correctly

 

Thanks somedude, yes you're right and it is an LG Philips screen!!

 

looks like you might have gotten an LG... it is only digit different!

I am excited, looks like I finally got a LG wsxga+ panel!!!!!!!!

 

enjoy your screen, I know I love mine, even though there is a stuck pixel. How does it look? viewing angles? stuck/dead pixels?

chad: congrats, how is it? didnt your FRU say it was a sumsung?

 

This screen has even more even light than my R51 IPS to be honest. I am really digging this LCD. I cannot see any sparkle effects of any sort and the viewing angle is pretty good too. I think you're really gonna like your LCD, chadwicktr.

BTW, This LCD is really bright!

 

Mine should be here tomorrow, or maybe thursday at the latest. The FRU on the parts list was 42T0423 which there is nothing in a HMM about it, nor nothing on any forum.

It's taken me 3 WSXGA+ orders to get an LG and 6 T6x orders to get anything besides a Samsung! I am so stoked!!

 

Has lenovo pulled the T61p from the website? I can't seem to find it now.
