Lenovo came up with an old-new hybrid IdeaPad and tablet

Even at CES 2010, Lenovo unveiled the U1 notebook / tablet combo, now it looks like the structure is finally coming up.

The jaw-shaped LePad measures 263 × 188 × 12,9 millimeters and weighs 760 grams. The tablet running Android 2.2 has a 10,1-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels. Inside, the 1,3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, 1GB of memory and 16/32GB of built-in storage are ticking. Of course, WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G and a 2-megapixel webcam can't be left out of today's tablet either.

Much more interesting is the U1, which is actually the dock for the LePad. However, the situation is not so simple, as the new IdeaPad only uses the tablet as a display, inside the notebook is powered by 1,2 GHz Core i5-540UM, Intel HD graphics, 2 GB RAM and 320 GB hard drive. The device also comes with a physical keyboard, 802.11 b / g / n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 and USB and HDMI connectors. The special laptop runs Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.

The IdeaPad U1 (dock + LePad) will cost about $ 1300, while the LePad alone will cost $ 520. In China, both builds will be available to those interested as early as this quarter.
