Laptops big and small have monopolized the headlines this week, with the most anticipation being Apple’s upcoming MacBook event on Tuesday October 14th. SlashGear will be live-blogging the whole thing, so join us at http://Live.SlashGear.com at 10am PST. Meanwhile the ‘Brick’ rumors of what Steve Jobs might be announcing keep on coming: we’ve seen water-jet [...]
Lenovo have announced their WiMAX-enabled notebooks, intended for use with Sprint’s high-speed XOHM network officially launched today in Baltimore. WiMAX options will be available from today on ThinkPad X301, T400, SL300 and SL500 models, with options on the ThinkPad W500, W700, SL400 and X200 models later on this year. Lenovo will also make WiMAX optional [...]
Lenovo’s ThinkPad W700 caused a few double-takes when it launched, with a 5.1 x 3.2-inch Wacom digitizer built into the palm-rest, integrated color calibrator for the 17-inch 1920 x 1200 display and a range of available processors that easily let you throw away your desktop workstation. Laptop Mag have had the W700 in for testing, [...]
The Lenovo IdeaPad S10 manged to perk at least a little interest in jaded netbook observers with its inclusion of a ExpressCard slot and use of Western Digital’s 5,400-rpm 160GB Scorpio Blue hard drive. Laptop Mag have put the freshly-released S10 through its paces, coming away impressed by performance and style, but with a little [...]
Lenovo’s X200t has only been official since Thursday last week, but the reviews are already beginning to wade in. Laptop Mag have put the $2,300 convertible notebook through its paces, and like just about every ThinkPad review in existence, the keyboard and general durability are both praised. Meanwhile, over at GottaBeMobile, they’ve lined up the X200t [...]
After a week or two on the down-low, netbooks have been back among the headlines with Sony grudgingly admitting that it will probably make one while MSI discussed plans for their second-generation range. Not bad for something an AMD VP described as only good for “around the house”. Elsewhere, it’s been 3G and netbooks getting [...]
Lenovo has finally delivered on the ThinkPad X200t Tablet PC, after months of speculation and rumor. It’s also brought along a friend, in the shape of the X200s, a lightweight business version of the existing ThinkPad X200. CPU options range from a 1.2GHz SU9300 Core 2 Duo up to a 1.86GHz SL9400, while up to [...]
Lenovo’s IdeaPad U8 MID concept looked to be just that - a concept - with no intent from the company to actually put the touchscreen-centered ultraportable device into production. However Chinese buyers can now pick up the IdeaPad U8 from Lenovo’s online store, priced at 4999 yuan ($731). For that, you get a 4.8-inch WVGA [...]
Intel have been holding their annual Developers’ Forum in San Francisco this week, and quite a few prototypes and commercial products have come out to play. Of the former, most exciting seems to be the UrbanMax Tablet PC concept; of the latter, Viliv’s S5 MID and S7 UMPC both promise to crank the netbook market [...]
The first live photo of Lenovo’s ThinkPad X200t Tablet PC has appeared, not long after the existence of the ultraportable itself was confirmed by the FCC. Looking unsurprisingly similar to the ThinkPad X61t it replaces, the convertible notebook has a pen-enabled touchscreen and seems to continue the traditional “built like a tank” design ethos.
