    My jaw nearly dropped when I saw someone with the x200t that had a borderless LCD bezel. It looks so much cooler than the one I have with border, that I now want the borderless bezel. Do you guys think it is possible to switch out the bezel from the pen/touch display, to the bezel of the pen only display? I’ve looked on eBay just in case the answer is yes, but I only see the one that is for the pen/touch display. I really want the borderless one!

    I never really looked into this matter until today, but here is just a small example of what I'm referring to.

    I wish I had the full view from both panels side by side, then you can really tell the difference between the two. If you see both panels side by side in person, it is clear that the borderless LCD panel looks much better than the out of lined thick border of the pen/touch panel.

    I ran into one of those in the 'wild' as well last week... repairman fixing our music system at our shop had one. It also had the AFFS display, as well... very nice system.

    I will have to try and avoid someone at launch, because he has one just like the one pictured. :mad:


    I’m so depressed about this right now, I just might leave mine at home. :cry:

    there is no option for anything other than bluetooth and wireless/wwan... it is 999 AUD and already sold out... i sold my X61t in anticipation for a X200t fire sale..

    My Thinkpad Patron Saint must be working extra hard for me this week...

    I think this option is only available in few countries (North America and Japan), it never really cropped up on Lenovo.com.au Australian website, or promoted here.
