My T400 drives a 22" 1680x1050 screen pretty fine using the advanced mini dock 
VGA, the same notebooks VGA output is rather mushy on the same screen and 
cable, so I guess the quality off the minidock is higher (can't provide real 
proof though)

If you can get your hand on a dock for testing you should give it a go, but 
expect no wonders, this still is an analog connection and 1680x1050 is already 
borderline...
