You might prefer the X220 or T420 which are the last models before they messed up the keyboard and touchpad starting with the 30's. I'm very happy with the *20's, is there any reason to go for newer ones?

The T450s and the T460 seem to have decent keyboards once again. At least, all they keys are there, and they don't have the weird layout of the 2nd generation X1 Carbon. Also, they've brought back separate physical buttons for the TrackPoint, which is nice, since the pseudo-buttons they had on the touchpad wouldn't recognize right-clicks about 10% of the time.
