Lenovo has announced its entry into the "netbook" market. The Linux-based IdeaPad S9 and Windows-XP-based S10 feature 8.9- and 10-inch displays, respectively, plus 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processors, 1.3 megapixel webcams, 802.11b/g wireless networking, and up to 160GB of storage, says the company.
Lenovo, best-known for the business-oriented ThinkPad product line it acquired from IBM, launched its consumer-focused IdeaPad product line in January of this year. The new IdeaPad S9 and S10 now extend this line down in both price and size. For example, the S10 measures just 9.8 x 7.2 x 1.08 inches, and will start at approximately $400 in the U.S.
