Notebook Shootout: Lenovo ThinkPad W700 vs. HP EliteBook 8730w

Earlier this year both HP and Lenovo announced and subsequently released 17-inch mobile workstations. These systems were not only notable for the considerable amount of power they brought to a portable (well, semi-portable) form-factor, they also had a number of “firsts” for notebooks. The ThinkPad W700 was the first 17-inch ThinkPad, as well as the [...]

Splashtop instant-on desktop to appear on Lenovo netbook

Splashtop, the instant-on Linux desktop, is something we have covered a number of times here at Geek.com. The idea of instant-on computers is something that manufacturers have always been working towards and with so much of what we do moving online, the time is right for significant adoption of tools like Splashtop and Phoenix HyperSpace. [...]

Review: Lenovo ThinkPad W700

For the last few years we have heard the term “desktop replacement” used to describe notebooks 15.4-inches and larger. Recently, most especially this year, we are finally starting to see notebooks that can be described as workstation replacements. These aren’t renamed gaming computers either–when companies like Lenovo and HP release portable workstations, they really mean [...]

Review: Lenovo IdeaPad S10 Netbook

While companies like Asus, MSI, and Acer have done a very good job of creating, and subsequently populating the netbook field we are still seeing new entrants. The big two that we have been hearing about for months (and possibly delaying purchases until learning more about them) have been Dell’s Inspiron Mini and the IdeaPad [...]

Sprint’s Xohm Network is Only Half Open

Today marks the formal launch of Sprint’s Xohm network, and celebrants are gathered in Baltimore to show off their new WiMAX-enabled gadgets. But after chatting with an executive from Lenovo, I wonder just how open Sprint’s network will be, and how that lack of true openness might slow the adoption of WiMAX. Lenovo is on hand [...]

An early look at the Lenovo IdeaPad S10

Earlier today Laptop Mag posted an early first look and unboxing of Lenovo’s netbook, the IdeaPad S10.

The system shipped with a 1.6GHz Atom processor, 5400RPM disk, 3-cell battery, 1GB RAM, and [...]

A Quick Guide to Netbooks

What a difference a year makes. It was only 10 months ago when the first true netbook, the original Asus Eee PC 701, hit the market. The Eee was a ground-breaking little computer but had a few flaws, the biggest being the limited 800×480 display. Today there’s an overwhelming array of low-cost but highly portable [...]

lenovo S9 netbook images from IDF mobility keynote.

I don’t really have any comment on this as about all I could touch was the keyboard but later on today I expect to be able to get hands-on. I’ll be comparing it to the netbook i’m using right now, the Medion Akoya (MSI Wind.) which has been performing flawlessly. I even did a live [...]

Lenovo P960 has fingerprint biometrics security and that’s about it

Lenovo has recently launched a new mobile phone - P960. Specs wise, there’s nothing special about the device — it has a dual-band GSM/GPRS radio on board, 1.3 megapixel camera, 2.8-inch touchscreen, and a microSD memory expansion slot. However, what sets the P960 apart is the presence of fingerprint biometrics security powered by Atrua Technologies. The [...]

Lenovo’s P960 features Fingerprint Biometrics Security, weirdness

The folks over at Lenovo sure know how to be eccentric. Just check out the form factor-or more specifically, the keypad-on a new smartphone they’ve made. Enhanced by a made-for-mobile fingerprint solution from Altrua Technologies, the Lenovo P960 is a tool that will keep all your data safe-supposedly. Other than its built-in Fingerprint Biometrics Security tech [...]
