Lenovo ThinkPad X100e Not a Netbook It Is Truly a Notebook

Together with the ThinkPad Edge, Lenovo has previewed other new notebook. The Lenovo ThinkPad X100e. Something that can grab attention? The dimensions! It is typically smaller than the ThinkPad X series. The screen is 11.6", slightly smaller than the X200’s 12" display. This is an ultra portable series notebook, not even a netbook.

Although the ThinkPad X100e only equipped with 11.6” display, but the 1366x768 display resolution is quite satisfying. The memory can be upgraded up to 4GB. The hard drive is also upgradeable to 320BG and 500GB. The standard Lenovo ThinkPad X100e is completed with 2GB RAM, and 250GB hard drive.

You’ll find ThinkPad X100e in black, red, and white. It uses 6-cell battery that is claimed to stand for about 5 hours of computing. It comes with Windows 7 pre-installed. If you are looking for Intel Inside logo, then you’ll be sorry, for the X100e uses Neo AMD Athlon processor.
In addition, the modem module is mounted in the unit, allowing users to surf the Internet while the SIM card is inside, when there is no possible wifi connection arround. The modem module itself is removable. There will be be two versions, with the built in modem installed and without the modem. Unfortunately, the location of the SIM card slot is not easy to reach. It is put behind the cover. To install the SIM card, we have to remove seven screws first.
But just like the Lenovo ThinkPad Edge, X100e has three USB ports, one of them is the USB port power-on, the USB port that can be used to charge USB devices like iPods as the notebook is off. Just like ThinkPad Edge, X100e does not have internal optical drive.
In US, this ultra portable notebook is sold at a low price, only $ 499. In Thailand, this approximately 1.5 kg with 6-cell battery notebook was sold 1000 units on its releasing day. With its attractive price, it can sweep the netbook market easily. Well, we’ll see.
