ThinkPad Z60m is the second model in the Lenovo ThinkPad Z series which, as of May 2006, consisted of the 14.1" Z60t and 15.4" Z60m. Announced September 2005, these models were the first ThinkPads to feature a widescreen (16:10) aspect ratio.[1]

All Z60m devices have integrated WiFi connectivity, a magnesium alloy frame, and numerous other ThinkVantage Technologies. Some Z60m devices feature integrated fingerprint reader and bluetooth connectivity. A special edition included a brushed titanium cover.

The laptop provides both PCMCIA and ExpressCard ports. Models that had in-built WWAN had optional connectivity provided by Verizon Wireless and their Evolution-Data Optimized service in the USA.[2]
