    Core Duo's are already available for the T series, the T60's. They are also available on the X series as the X60. Don't know about the Core Duo's on the Z series.

    The T43 is not getting core duo. The Z's should be in the next couple months.

    One person has posted that through inside information, the Z60 Core Duo's will arrive in mid May. (Do a quick search and you should be albe to find the person who posted this).

    I am in Canada. When I called Lenovo Canada, one of the rep told me that if I order a T60 right now, there would be at least 4 weeks waiting time. So I guess maybe the machine will not be available till April.

    Will there be a new T series model available with Core Duo in the IBM future?

    I would imagine IBM will not release any more notebooks. Lenovo has the T60 with core duo, I imagine the next update will have the Merom (will it still be called core duo? core duo 64?)

    I wonder the same.

    I have seen a few German sites offering a T60 2.0ghz and x1400....

    Is it coming out in the USA? When?
