    I'm getting ready to order a T61 and found two similar models, 646066U and 64574UU but can't figure out the price difference between them given that the more expensive one seems to have lower specs.

    I could not find any information about then on the US web site but searching Lenovo's web site found these hits on the Canadian site:
    646066U | 64574UU

    The main differences I can see are that the 64574UU does not have wireless n enabled, has a smaller disk (80 GB vs 160 Gb on the 646066U), has a CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo and the 646066U has a DVD Recordable (Dual Layer).

    Now I initially thought that the price difference was because of the warranty coverage (searching the IWS site for both models returns that the 6460 type does not have European warranty while the 6457 has) but the 15" model currently available in Portuguese resellers is the 6460 one (646065G which looks similar to the 646066U but does not come with bluetooth) so I guess the IWS has just not been updated to reflect all the countries.

    Anyone knows where I could try to get more information about the differences between these models? I was going to buy the model currently available in Portugal (while it's a bit more expensive) but not having bluetooth really set me off, so I'm looking to buy it from the US.

    Thanks!
