    I think the widescreen is a typo, and the picture appears to be an R61. I don't think they would have made a widescreen X61 and not unveiled it at the same time as the other X61 models.

    Yep, got to be a mistake. There wouldn't be all that extra space on the sides of the keyboard if it was a 12"

    It may show a R61, but the title does say 'widescreen'.

    This could get interesting...

    I'm pretty sure that's not an X61 widescreen. It says 12.1" XGA, and Lenovo has made no mention of it anywhere else.
