    The AUO panel is great but I never use the touch and I'd rather not have the added weight and slight glare/depth distortion the touch panel gives.

    Is it possible to remove the touch panel or replace the screen for a non touch?

    Not easily.

    You have to replace the entire panel, bezels, and, as far as I can tell, the outer notebook shell because the two screens use slightly different mounting points.

    Try asking one of the other forum members with a non-touch t440s LG screen to swap their lid for yours. If you tell them you've got an AUO screen, they'll most likely offer you their first daughter's hand in marriage as well...
