Lenovo ThinkPad T400s (Multitouch)
09/18/2009
Pros: Lovely textured trackpad (ironically redundant given the multitouch screen). Still offers solid ThinkPad design and sturdiness. Turns Paint into Fingerpaint - fun
Cons: Huge price markup for touch features. Massive performance, weight and battery hit. Stretching to use multitouch screen is uncomfortable for more than a few seconds, making extended touch usage nearly impossible and rarely accurate
Lenovo loves to push and prod at the boundaries of notebook technology. Sometimes these results are fascinating (as with the dual-screen ThinkPad W700ds). And sometimes they fall flat, as is the case with the ThinkPad T400s with multitouch hardware.

Lenovo ThinkPad T400s - Slimming Down and Staying Tough
06/23/2009
Verdict: At its thinnest point, the T400s is around 21mm, which is around 2 to 3mm thicker than the X300's thinnest point of 18.6mm. That's quite an improvement over the previous non-slim T400 model, and we do quite like that. While the form factor has been ...
Lenovo's original ThinkPad T400 was a chunky notebook that was much loved by its users. Its successor, the ThinkPad T400s sheds the bulk but still packs in a heck of a punch. We find out more in our exclusive online coverage.

Pros: Lightweight and sturdy build ; ergonomic keyboard ; good on-the-go performance
Cons: Isn't as light as ultraportables ; SSD can be persnikety with some apps
