    Use System Update to update your drivers, you might miss the WWAN drivers .. Or you don't have the WWAN card :p

    I feel a surge of oxytocin seeing these very words of gratitude, and especially from you. :p

    So you upgraded your X200t yet?

    nope, not yet. I just bought a Nikon D700 a lens and some gears so I'm don't have the urge to buy anything yet.

    In order to run photoshop etc, I also bought a PE4H and PSU for eGPU, if eGPU is successful on my X200t, I will delay upgrade for a year or two if not I will most likely built a desktop for my next upgrade (or unlikely the W5xx) since my galaxy S2 these days are basically replacing most of my mobile computing needs.

    not sure yet, Nando recommended gtx460, so most likely that or some high-end eyefinity 6 capable card so I can use in my future desktop.

    This happened to a w500 I have. You may occasionally need to manage your radios from the thinkvantage menu
