Hi all,
I want to buy 14" T61, but P version (WSXGA+), was there ever some T61p with 14" screen ? I am searching on ebay, but no way. Only 15". I know that there was 14" t60p.

Today I received my 4965 AGN card from China and it is running well ( without updating bios ). Transfer speed in my local network is about 3x faster, than with Atheros G card. I use main + aux + 3G wwan anthenna as third one.

It is not possible, but there is USB thinkpad keyboard even with trackpoint. But it is little expensive, in my opinion.

Intel 4965AGN FRU 42T0947 WiFi Card, good option ?
Hi,
I want to upgrade wifi in my X61 from B/G Atheros card to this one.
I primary use laptop in my home network that has ability to use N-standard. Does this card give me more transfer speed ?
What do you think ?
ps: I found this card on ebay brand new for about 15€.
cheers.

Re: x41 problems
Try to install ThinkPad fan control application and turn cpu fan to high speed.
And what about GPU issue ? Like in t4x´s. I would try to make small pressure on GPU while laptop is running of course. If after removing pressure laptop freezes again it will be GPU imo.

Thank you, It is working now !
only problem was, that with inserted wifi card I was unable to boot OS from external Cdrom, so I pulled out wifi card, booted to OS and than when system was running I had to insert wifi card back. After that I was able to apply " wifi card hack ".
