    About some accessories for X220t

    Hi guys,

    I bought an X220t recently and now I want to get some accessories for it.

    I'm looking in particular to get a second adapter for travel. Looking around, I found there exists a 'Lenovo - 90W Ultraslim AC/DC Combo Adapter' which looks just like what I would want. The only thing is, it's 90W and my first adapter says 65W. Is it compatible? If not, do you know of a similar adapter which would be (can't seem to find a 65W version)?

    Second, I noticed there is a privacy filter ('3M - PF12.5W'). I had one of these on my old laptop, but my new X220t has the 't' in it. Does the filter affect pen or touch input? Also, I was wondering about the setup of the filter: how does it attach? Is it designed for place-once-and-live-with-it or can it be easily removed and placed again when I don't need it?

    Thanks a lot for your answers!

    -LP

    I'm no expert, but I was under the impression that charging a 65W-rated laptop with a 90W adapter was bad for the battery :confused:

    Has anyone tested the privacy filter on a tablet?
