If anyone is interested Lenovo has for some reason put up the T440s manual on their support site already at http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?DocID=UM018201 . The manual mentions NFC and Multi Touch on "some models" EDIT: Also mentions M.2, but specifically for LAN/WAN cards, not solid state storage. mmm11105 fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Jul 24, 2013 |

Cream_Filling posted:The T440s and similar models are moving to the M.2 next gen form factor for SSDs. Which is fine, I guess, except basically nobody makes them yet. Annoyingly the T440s only has space for a 40mm M.2 drive, which are meant for caching and currently cap out at 64GB

Can anyone with a ~14" 1080p laptop weigh in on how font/icons sizes are? Looking at the T440p and wondering if the 14" 1080p screen might make things a little too small.

I just ordered a HP Elitebook 840 G1, since they had a pricing error that I hope they honour. $1099 for 3 yr warranty, i7-4600U, 256gb SSD, 1080p screen, magnesium body). Did I make a huge mistake (a.k.a should I cancel) EDIT: Cancelled it, decided I'd rather not make a $1000 investment without having any reviews mmm11105 fucked around with this message at 22:40 on Oct 2, 2013 |

I chatted with an HP rep, that is a pricing error, it will be changed and all orders cancelled.

Martytoof posted:Do we know when the T440 is supposed to hit? T440 + T440s should be out in mid-late october, probably shortly after the Windows 8.1 launch. T440p (which is OF COURSE the one I want) is I think targeted for early-mid november.

tijag posted:If I want a 15" laptop with the i7-4850MQ chip and 16GB RAM/512GB SSD, it seems like the new MBP isn't really even overpriced. The T440p that's coming out soon will have an i7 Quad option, though Lenovo charges through the nose for SSDs. If you're willing to put the SSD/RAM in yourself though you could get in well under the MBPs price. Though it is 14" and doesn't have a retina screen. Maybe check out the W540 whenever it comes out, it has a super high res screen + a quad core

About to pull the trigger on a T440p. i7-4700MQ, GT730M, FHD screen, AC wireless $1312 through B&N. Mostly for programming and school/campus use, some video editing. Am I making a terrible mistake? It doesn't seem that much thicker/heavier than the T440s and I like the full volt processors.

shrughes posted:Note that the T440p is probably 4.7 lbs. It says 4.7 lbs under "Tech Specs" and says 4.1 lbs on the side bar, which is probably a transcription error. It also says 4.7 lbs in PDF files and other locations. That still doesn't seem that bulky, though I guess I won't know until I get it in my hands. My only concern is the cooling, with a i7MQ and discrete graphics, it might be a little hot.

P.N.T.M. posted:That is a recipe for more than just a "little video editing." Yeah but I wanted the 730M anyways, so the crazy processor was only $100 more. Since I want to try to ~4 years, I figured it would be good future proofing.

I just went ahead and ordered it, so I guess I get to be SA's guinea pig on the T440p.

The ship date on my T440p just got pushed up to Nov. 3. Hopefully it's worth the $1300

I ordered the official Lenovo HDD Caddy for my T440p (So I could put the factory HDD in to complement my SSD). Somehow the Hard Drive is WAY to loose in the adapter, IBM has no idea why, sayas to just return the adapter. Does anyone know if any of the third party ones are good? Or how I could shim this one up? Photos: http://imgur.com/a/DSbo9

shrughes posted:That is a different adaptor that looks different than the W520 adaptor I have, but my theory is that they're designed for bumpered HDDs like the W520's seems to be. I only put SSDs in mine and used cardboard to shim them in. I called IBM and they said that as of the T440p they don't have bumpers on the HDD anymore, the bumper is not even a potential part listed for the laptop of the caddy. But it does seem that way to me. Does anyone know if the ultrabay in the T440p is SATA 3???

Inimical posted:I've read through the OP and a lot of the last few pages, but I'm hoping you guys might have some suggestions for my specific situation. Try the B&N Lenovo Link (Should be in the OP), and see if you can configure either a T440s (if you value slimness/battery life/SSD cache) or a T440p (if you value POWER) with the 1080p screen under your budget. I have a T440p myself, and the screen is FANTASTIC.

Anyone have any experiences with the new Thinkpad Docks (for a T440p)? Worth the premium over a USB3.0 docking station?
