I met with the Lenovo folks and got a closer look at the notebooks they’re currently offering. The Lenovo S10e netbook made an appearance, but you can’t tell the difference between it and the S10. Other than the fast booting Splashtop environment, that is. Here’s some camera time with the 16-inch Y650 and the unique dual-screen W700ds.

The huge W700ds can run for two hours on battery
The dual-display is well constructed and stable. I saw the internals in a mock-up and you don’t have to worry about the side screen flapping in the breeze. ;) The new Y-series offer a nice mix of features between home and home office. The all offer facial recognition, 16:9 displays and basic multi-touch gestures in the trackpad.
