Advanced Mini-Dock 250410U power supply and compatibility questions.

[igenr8]

I just purchased a new T400 2764-CTO which has the discrete video.  I replaced a three year old T43 with a screen that failed.  Lenovoi told me my two port replicators for the T43 would work on the T400.  That proved to be an error.  So now I am in the market for a T400 port replicator.  I am looking at the Lenovo Thinkpad Advanced Mini-Dock 250410U.  I have purchased two power supplies and so do not need another power supply.  I don't trust Lenovo for an accurate answer.

My questions: Can I purchase an Advanced Mini Dock without the power supply?  And secondly, will this Mini-dock work with the T400 2764-CTO.  (I am running Vista Business as my sole OS.)

Thanks for any help.

yes, 250410U is the correct part number for the advanced mini dock compatible with the T400.

it is sold with an a/c adapter and unfortunately cannot be purchased separately.   you could, however, resell the adapter if you don't want it.   forum.thinkpads.com has a free marketplace if you're interested.

Thank you for your help.  I found a used one on Ebay for $125.  Best price I could find short term.
