Specs and Prices for Lenovo's Ideapad S9 Lite Notebook Hits Web
Posted by Kit Eaton at 6:43 PM on August 18, 2008
Lenovo recently went official with details on the upcoming Ideapad S10 ultra-portable notebook, and now there's data on a little brother version, the S9 Lite. The S9 will have a slightly smaller screen, at 8.9-inches, with a 300-kilopixel webcam, 512MB of RAM and a 4GB SSD. It's got the same Atom N270 and 945 GSE chipset, though, so it sounds very much like its bigger S10 brother, and comes with Linux and a "multitouch function" trackpad. In three colours, the diminutive PC will cost you US$370 upon launch in Hong Kong. [UMPCFever via Engadget]

wow someone understands what the price should be. still a little high, but at $299-$349 this would be perfect. I remember when asus had an idea to make a cheap ultra portable laptop.

Dell! What in Sam Hill is the matter with you? You let Lenovo of all companies steal your thunder in August?
I don't get it, Dell. You used to pay attention.

MORE DAMN UNICORNS. Can we get a definitive US release date. Otherwise I am tired of being teased. I am getting netbook blue balls from all this teasing.
If Lenovo can produce this unicorn then they just might have my money. MSI came hard, Acer semi-one up'd em, Dell seems nice if it ever shows, but that 299-349 got me all hot and bothered....
