Lenovo U1 Netbook
The hype around the technology portals is currently the "Big Ass" iPod Touch. How quickly we forget about the other hypes (i.e. Google Nexus One "super" phone). Well, it looks like the tablet wars have started. Let's see how long it will last.
I commented that the iPad was not for me and that is and will hold true. I need a computer not a media tablet. Anyway, I think I pitched the Dell v13 a couple days ago. Well, I want to throw another candidate in the mix.
The Lenovo U1 tablet-Netbook. Why? I realized that comparing the Vostro v13 to the iPad is comparing "oranges" to "apples". Haha, pun intended. The U1 is not a direct competitor as it lacks the "content distribution" feature, but it is close enough for me.
Check out some of the features (I could see myself rocking the U1):
