    Hi,

    In this (unfortunetely closed) thread http://forum.notebookreview.com/lenovo/690606-x220t-vs-x230t.html fatpolomanjr wrote:

    In fact, the digitizer accuracy is so bad in the edges that I can't even use Journal because I don't get the File menu. As soon as I tap on the screen, the curser jumps right away to the left bottom edge. This is nearly unusable and worse than on my old Stylistic (also Wacom).

    Does anyone know where to obtain the mentioned Firmware upgrade?

    Thank you,
    divB

    support.lenovo.com -> Drivers and Software -> Enter Machine Type -> Firmware Update. The two files there are the Read Me and the installation; it will tell you if you need the update or not (I HOPE you need it).

    Alternatively Lenovo System Update should be able to get that update.

    Thank you!

    At least the firmware number increased from 0139 P0002 to 0139 P0006

    It's still a little bit moving around but subjectively I find that it improved (I hope it's not only Placebo ;-) )

    I downloaded this update a few months ago and I don't think it helped at all. As far as I know the edge tracking issue is basically unresolved.
