Lenovo Announces New Classmate+ PC and Convertible

Posted on by

Lenovo adds another model to Intel’s Learning Series line of laptops.

Earlier this week, the folks at OLPC unveiled their brand new XO 3, a tablet aimed at children in the developing world. However, OLPC isn’t the only company working the low-cost educational PC market. This week at CES, Lenovo unveiled its new Classmate+ laptop and convertible notebooks, which promise to be even more rugged and affordable than the last Classmate PC while providing longer battery life and improved ease of use.

Based on Intel’s N2600 Atom CPU (which just started shipping last month), the Classmate+ features a 10.1-inch anti-glare screen (with touch capability on the convertible model) as well as optional high-brightness or HD on both, as well as the option for a capacitive touch screen with a pen stylus on the convertible version. It boasts up to 2 GB DDR3 memory and up to 320 GB in HDD storage. Solid State storage is also available, up to 32 GB of it, and the whole thing runs on a 6-cell battery that provides a maximum 10 hours of usage.

If that wasn’t enough, you’ve also got three USB ports, VGA, and an optional HDMI port for transferring data and outputting standard and high definition video to an external display. As for that extra-ruggedness we were promised, the Classmate+ keyboard packs enhanced water resistance, as well as a tougher corner design, a reinforced steel hinge and a strengthened DC jack.

“As the world’s #1 PC maker in education, we’re committed to enhancing learning via our platform of PC solutions designed for students,” Michael Schmedlen, director of worldwide education at Lenovo, said in a statement. “By joining with Intel to create the new Lenovo Classmate+ Clamshell and Classmate+ Convertible laptops, we’re demonstrating how mobile computing fits into any learning environment, no matter the location or budget.”

The price of the Lenovo Classmate+ laptop and convertible laptop will vary depending on the individual market’s taxes, tariffs, and configuration options, but it’s available this month for governments and qualifying educational institutions.

The former prime minister, credited for much of the success of the country’s ICT industry, was presented the award by Pikom’s newly elected chairman Woon Tai Hai at its 25th anniversary dinner held recently in Kuala Lumpur. The event was a culmination of a series of activities that Pikom had lined up to celebrate the year.

also present at the event was Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Maximus Johnity Ongkili.

-Ultra-sleek computing

THOUGH not the earliest to launch the ultrabook in the country, Toshiba didn’t disappoint with its Portege Z830, the world’s lightest and thinnest 13.3-inch computer.

Featuring second-generation Intel Core processors and Toshiba’s EasyGuard technology, it also comes with ports, slots and a solid-state drive for better storage capacity.

at 15.9mm at its thickest point, the Z830 weighs just 1.1kg, yet packs in an eight-cell battery. With a 13.3-inch HD display with LED backlighting, WLAN, Bluetooth 3.0 and Gigabit Ethernet LAN, the model offers mobility without compromising function. Its spill-resistant keyboard, 1.3-megapixel webcam, 128GB SSD and up to 6GB DDR3 memory should delight users, too.

The top-of-the-line model with Intel Core i7 processor goes for RM4,799. Another option with Core i5 is priced at RM3,999.

Toshiba has also come up with two Android Honeycomb-based tablets: the 10-inch Regza AT100 (RM1,599) and 7-inch Regza AT1S0 (RM1,899). The smaller tablet sports 16GB internal memory, mini-USB, micro-HDMI and micro-SD card slots, while the bigger one offers up to 32GB internal memory, full-sized USB and mini-USB, an HDMI port and SD card reader. Both feature 1GB DDR2 RAM, WiFi, Bluetooth and HSPA+(3.5G) support, a five-megapixel rear camera, two-megapixel front camera, and GPS function.

Then there’s Toshiba’s Qosmio DX730 all-in-one desktop PC, which at its highest specification offers Intel Core i7 Quad Core technology, NVidia GeForce GT540M 1GB DDR3 video RAM graphics, 2TB hard disk drive capacity, a Blu-ray ROM drive, multi-card reader and advanced multimedia features. The RM3,599 package offers Core i5 processor while the RM4,299 package has Core i7.

DELL has three new devices to boast of: the Latitude ST tablet, XPS 14z notebook, and Inspiron one 2320 all-in-one touch-screen desktop.

The 10.1-inch Windows 7 Latitude (RM2,380) is designed for mobile professionals and corporate users. The XPS 14z (RM2,999) is one of the thinnest full-featured notebooks to come in a borderless 14-inch screen but in a 13-inch form factor.

for those who prefer a larger screen, there’s the 23-inch Inspiron one 2320 (RM1,999), whose screen also doubles up as a TV.
