		+	Hey guys,
		+
		+	Have you ever found any resources describing why IBM discontinued this very excellent device? I've come to find the integrated camera indispensible. BTW. I have an A31p and a22p and both have ultraports (although you had already pulled that to a pretty good conclusion)...

	Please google for things like "T30 ultraport" or "A30p ultraport" and you will find a lot of pages indicating that there were models with ultraport. Either they all had wrong information or there were models including it. It is true that the mentioning on the locations overview page is a mistake and should obviously be UltraBay, but still you can see the ultraport in the movie picture. However, by writing "the time of the T30" i also refer to the models like the A30p and i think that there is very much stronger indication that there were A30p models with UltraPort.

	Yes, the UltraPort was available throughout all models of the T2x series. And yes, it was rarely found in models from the T30 series. But the location overview movie at the IBM web page shows the UltraPort and it mentions it on the page. So this seems to indicate that some T30 models still came with it.
