i wonder when the 14.1 widescreen will be available.
-
-
Well...Can anyone tell me whether this is T61 or T61p since the title said "6459CTO ThinkPad T61 15 Widescreen"?... Thanks... -
Nice! I did the same! My RO told me the WUXGA is gonna stall my order another 2 weeks. And if I get in line first with this bad boy (which admitted I was really wanting WSXGA+ anyway) I may get this puppy shipped by the end of this week beginning of next. I'll just cancel my July order (yah I know, pathetic how it's just days from September!) and move from there.

Granted, I'm pretty sure this model doesn't have WUSB, but that's a small price I'm willing to pay at this point to get it sooner. I've waited over a month for this thing already so I paid for the 2 day shipping... at this point I just want my laptop, I don't care how much it costs!
This may be a silly thing to do... ordering two nearly identical ThinkPads just in the hopes of getting one sooner... But considering the fact that WSXGA+ is really where a 15.4" should be at, I'm feeling better with this newer purchase. -

I ordered my customized t61p 15.4" wsxga+ last week off the ca education portal and I received it less than a week later...!

I hope so I am waiting for this baby -

Anyone have order status yet for this new one? I just ordered one and will be cancelling my previous...

40Y8598 LENOVO MESSENGER CARRYING CASE -
Is it available in Canada? i dont see it on the Canadian website.
-
-
I just don't know why my credit card hasn't been charged yet..nor been held...wth is this situation?!?!?!
-
-
you should give them a call if they havent authorized the charge yet, they may hold your order up.
Ordered this morning 8-9ish - at noon I called and they said the order was sent to the warehouse. -
-
-
-
The status should stay as Processing until it ships in which case it will change to shipped (I believe this is how it goes)
Your CC just gets authorized at first just to make sure the money is there. It will not get charged until the order actually ships. -
-
Yah, I'd give them a call, just to make sure everything is okay. Lenovo's Card Services Department is at 1-800-426-3325. I'm not sure how they are with phone support since the one time I had to call them, I went directly to voicemail... a pre-recorded response saying they were experiencing higher then normal call volume. But if you didn't get a email from Lenovo regarding "Action Required - Lenovo Order XXXXX" you may be okay... But a call to them couldn't hurt.
-
Hi all,
Does anyone know how this WSXGA+ screen is ? and also who the manufacturer is ? Brightness and clarity....say for watching a occasional movie.
Thanks -
-
This is pretty exciting news! I was looking at the Asus V2S and F8SV, both of which are not out yet.
The T61p has always looked great though. I am glad they put the 1680 x 1050 resolution in. I am going to be seriously considering it now!
I wonder if they will release a 14" 1440 x 900 screen over the next couple of days. That would be something I am really interested in as one of the reasons I am laptop shopping is to get away from 15.4" screens just for portability purposes....decisions decisions....... -
Just bought mine. Very surprised that the USXNARTRIPLE code works for these.
-
does it come with UWB
-
-
I guess I got lucky with the delivery, but i ordered my T61p with WUXGA around the first week of August and got it two weeks ago. I've never seen the WSXGA+, but the WUXGA is very very nice, especially if you like a high resolution screen and don't have any problems reading small fonts (I guess you could also reduce the resolution if reading small fonts is a problem). I'm very happy that I upgraded from my 12" Dell 720M.
BTW, I suggest you guys get 2GB of RAM for Vista and do a clean install after you get your notebook. The Vista Anytime Upgrade DVD does not come with the notebook so you should order it now! -
i ordered 7/25, original ESD 8/28. Just bumped to 9/28 and just cancelled my order.
going to order the WSXGA+ with the same options for $1490 (epp, this time).
tired of waiting but this is $400+ cheaper. -
-
i thought about letting them race to delivery like you're doing, but at this point the $400+ saved is worth it. horrible paper-launch on lenovo's part.
-
I want to know more about this 14" WS T61p. That would get me to wait on hitting the "Checkout" button on the 14" Std T61p I have in the cart currently (at $1043).
-
-
I called in to cancel my original order for a 15.4" WUXGA model (the CSR informed me that the models with UWB and the WUXGA are basically in a black hole for the time being) and got the WSXGA+ model instead. He put me on the priority list and said that it should ship within a week and a half. Crossing my fingers...
-
-
I just cancelled my order...
Ordered 7/26, original ESD 8/28. Delay to 9/28.
Just re-order the WSXGA+ one with the same options for $300 cheaper. -
-
-
I just put in my order today. The labor day sale makes for an amazing bargain on this system. Ship date says 09/19/07, but it will be worth the wait!

The UWB is still not available !!!
I wonder when will they put it back -
I ordered 8/29 - it shipped today
I will just be putting UWB in myself. This was a FAST order! -
-
they tend to be cheaper than newegg the majority of the time. I had one order with a UPS-caused problem and PGN jumped right in and overnighted me a new part to rectify it - this really impressed me. I've been a loyal customer ever since. I usually just find what I want using the category tool on newegg and then search the part number on PGN.
Memory prices have gone up a few dollars in the last month or two, but you can find numerous brands of memory for around $90-100 per 2GB stick on newegg. -

http://www.datamemorysystems.com/_memory-information/DM50_190.asp
Seems that they're also nice places to get RAMs... -
-
Dont let that be a deciding factor though.
Most on the forums here will tell you buy any cheap ram from newegg because they can be found for $90-100 each. I will only use crucial, but to be fair - they are probably right. As long as it has a lifetime warranty with a money back gaurentee you should be safe.
EDIT: example - newegg listing for compatible memory... $98-140'ish depending on manufacturer. -
and why isn't UWB standard in the T61p? I thought it was, no? -
I am unsure if the recently ordered T61p's include UWB (I doubt it thought as I would think they would be flaunting it by now)
I plan on adding it in as per those directions you linked. While I think it probably goes against the warranty, if you do it right I doubt they would realize it was done after the fact.
T61p 15.4" WSXGA+ is available now!
