ThinkPad tablet pc Notes from CES
I met with Jeff Samitt, with Lenovo, today. Jeff is the conceptual designer for the X series notebooks and tablets. Jeff said that demand for the X40 tablet pc has drastically exceeded their initial forcasts.
They announced the new x60 notebooks yesterday. the future x60 tablet can be found in the new X60 notebook
- 2.5" 7200 RPM drives, sata
- Dual Core processor support
- 4 GB of RAM
- 3 USB Ports
- Firewire
- integrated EVDO
No word on when the X60 tablet will come out, but I'd look for it in the next 6 months to a year. No current plans for a alternate tablet sizes - 12" only for now
