    Lenovo is on EST since they're on the east coast.

    Actually, Lenovo's site seems to update on PST - for instance, my order status changed from it's second ESD to it's most recent at midnight PSt - so hold on a few more hours and we'll see then.

    I had the same experience as lowlymarine so I would guess it is PST.

    Than again they may do new product manually so it could be anytime :p

    Would they update at midnight though? What time do they usually put new items on?

    Now it's midnight!

    If you notice this thread: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?p=2006766#post2006766 it was 6:45AM central time I believe when the first person noticed that the T61 with 15.4" screen became available.

    I say the release of the T61p will be June 19th or 26th. I hope it's earlier, but I can't see them releasing a new model with all the delays with the current line-up.

    It might be possible that the T61p orders will sidestep the delays. I don't remember the things that were holding up past T61 orders but I don't think those affect the T61p. One that comes to mind is the bezel problem. It seems like the 15.4" bezels are fine though. I could be wrong.

    i think we assume lenovo runs off EST because it's based in NC.

    That's what I was basing my assumption on. Their support hours are also EST (because of that reason).

    Yep, it's crazy... but then again, if I were getting one, I'd be pretty excited too... well, maybe not because I don't like the T61, but you know what I mean. ;)
