WUXGA and 15.4", do they exist anymore?

The power jack on my Inspiron 6000 is crapping out for the second time in two years, so I either need to get it fixed or get a new laptop. I don't want to keep pumping money into this if it's a recurring issue, so I'm leaning towards a new laptop.

However, this display has really spoiled me. The problem is, none of the laptops I've looked at have WUXGA in anything less than 17" (which is too big). I've checked Dell, Gateway, HP, and IBM. Is there anywhere else I can look?

The Lenovo T61p usually has WUXGA as an option but right now it only has WSXGA+ (must be a shortage on WUXGA screens)

Does anybody know of any other laptops?

I'm looking at the Lenovo, but I'll have to buy it through someone else's school to get to the WUXGA option apparently...

Well, I know that 15.4" WUXGA panels are still made (as others have pointed out) since it is a big thing on the MacRumors forum, people dropping WUXGA panels into their MacBook Pros.

According to Newegg, there are only 2 laptops that they sell that have 15.4" screens and WUXGA resolutions. 1 Lenovo and 1 HP
