    Hi, I was wondering if Lenovo was offering any LED backlit displays in T6x series?
    If not when do you guys think this type of display will show up in Lenovo products?

    Thanks

    Prospectively very soon. W/in the next 0.5 months a 13.3'' ultra-portable will be released to the market.

    OK, so now we have the X300.
    But when will we get LED backlight displays in the T6X line? (jealous of the MacBook Pros :rolleyes: )

    I'm wondering about this too, especially I plan to buy a T61 or T61p for college in the next one or two months...the T series doesn't have the best reputation for battery life (especially with dedicated GPU), and an LED screen would noticeably help in this area.

    How would anyone here have a clue at all the internal plans of a company? If someone answers that they have a clue they're lying..best they can do is a wild guess and therefore your guess is as good as anyone's.
