LAS VEGAS—Lenovo is no stranger to the netbook genre, after successfully launching the Ideapad S10 and the S12. But it has yet to launch a legitimate one for business users, one that it can proudly call a ThinkPad. Based on the short time I spent with it in advance of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the ThinkPad X100e is a viable contender.
The ThinkPad X100e dared and successfully squeezed dual pointing devices into an 11.6-inch frame. And though the X100e’s battery life may not be as long lasting as some of its Ideapad siblings, the extra horsepower from the AMD parts might help ease the doubts.
Its classic black chassis with the ThinkPad logo can easily be mistaken for the ThinkPad X200 series, as it is small and very portable. It measures 11.1 inches by 8.2 inches by 0.8 inches and weighs as much as the 3.3-pound HP Mini 311 and the 3-pound Asus EeePC 1101HA – both netbooks with 11.6-inch widescreens. The X100e comes in “Midnight Blue” and “Heatwave Red”.
