The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    The service manual is published (few more details about R61/T61)

    The document has several mistakes (e.g. number of status indicators is 11, but only 10 are in the description table etc.).

    Attention! Among wireless options a found this option:
    Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN (11n disabled)

    "If you have logged on with an administrator user ID, and you press Fn+F3, the panel for selecting a power scheme appears. If you have logged on with another user ID, and you press Fn+F3, the panel does not appear."
    Hmm, Vista, we have a problem?

    From what I see, Lenovo is still designing the camera. It's not sold yet, it is not in the documents yet.

    Is the service book being updated as we speak? I see assembly instructions for the camera, and the parts list shows the camera.

    What's also interesting is that it shows different part numbers for the palm rest for Taiwan, which might confirm that Taiwan ThinkPads will continue to have the IBM logo.

    ... and, from the FRU no, it appears the T61 uses the same LCD panel as the Z61t, at least for Samsung.

    No, this is the same document. I missed the assembly instructions for the camera. But still, there are technical specs of most of the parts except camera.
