The T400s Multitouch incites lust among business users. It has the ThinkPad X301's exquisitely thin dimensions, with a 14-inch LED widescreen to boot, It's the lightest business laptop in its class—and that's with the internal optical drive. The latest edition takes advantage of Microsoft's Touch Pack and other touch-friendly applications made for Windows 7 and is, bar
none, the best implementation of a multitouch panel yet on a laptop.
The T400s is considerably thinner than the ThinkPad T400, measuring 13.3 by 9.4 by 1.1 inches (H WD),but weighs a bit more than the original T400s—4.4 pounds versus 3.9. Unfortunately, the T400s had to unload certain features to achieve this thinness; it has only one memory card reader slot and no FireWire port. It does, however, have every wireless technology built-in—3G, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a GPS chip. And hard drive options include a 128GB SSD.But the big story is obviously the new multitouch gestures. By tapping two fingers on the screen, you invoke a series of icons called Simple Tap. You can also customize screen icons for commonly used apps and tasks. Though Simple Tap could be a bit temperamental, otherwise the touch features worked like a charm.
Though finding the right business implementation for the multitouch screen could prove a challenge, this new T400s is nonetheless an exciting look ahead for Windows 7 systems.
