Lenovo ThinkPad X100e & ThinkPad Edge Notebooks Leaked Lenovo ThinkPad Ultraportables Spec-ed & Priced, Release Dates Rumored

If earlier reports have pointed out that the new ThinkPad X100e is
actually Lenovo's first Thinkpad netbook, today we caught wind that the
computer manufacturer is not going to introduce only one, but two
models. Guilty for the whole thing is the new Lenovo ThinkPad Edge
ultraportable, a rather powerful machine that feature sa choice of AMD
and Intel processors (ranging from the AMD Turion X2 or AMD Neo to the
Pentium SU4100 or the Core 2 Duo SU7300) designed for the ultra low
power segment.
Apparently pushed into the X-series of premium ultraportables, the new
Lenovo ThinkPad X100e is a 11.6-inch display and runs on AMD Athlon
MV-40 processors (on the RS780 chipset), has 4GB of RAM and up to 500GB
of storage along with WiFi-n, Gigabit ethernet and VGA output. There is
a choice of either 3 cell of 6 cell batteries and optional Bluetooth and
UMTs connectivity. The netbook is supposed to measure just 282 x 169 x
30 mm and weigh somewhere in the range of 1.36kg to 1.5kg depending on
the battery chosen.
As for the ThinkPad Edge, the 13.3-inch notebook is simliar with the
X100e, will have 4GB of RAM and up to 500GB of storage along with WiFi-N
support, Bluetooth, Gigabit Ethernet, and even HDMI output capability.
Targeted at small businesses and fit in between the current IdeaPad and
ThinkPad offerings, there is also an option for an UMTS/GPS module and
or an external DVD burner.
The ThinkPad Edge will debut before or at CES, while the Lenovo ThinkPad
X100e should be available a bit later for some $500.
