    I ordered a T61 T8300 14,1 1440x900 laptop 2,5 weeks ago in the Netherlands, where I live. To cut a long story short: it cannot be delivered anymore. Since I need a laptop for my new study I bought a T61 15,4. It is my first own laptop.

    I really, really like the feel of the thinkpad series, but... The 15,4 is too big for me. Also, there is too much flex here and there and my battery has a big wuggle!! That really disturbes me.

    I saw in the T500 preview that there were consessions at the keyboard and that the flex was bigger, so I really do not want a 400/500 serie. I think the best choice for me is a 14,1 T61.

    But where can I still buy the 1440x900 version with 3 years on site warranty? Cannot find it anymore :( .

    Edit:
    Found one in Germany, only it has a german keyboard :(.
