Lenovo’s CES 2010 range has been revealed, and heading the attack is the new Lenovo ThinkPad Edge. A new series of 13, 14 and 15 inch machines, the Edge line-up is targeted at home buyers together with small and medium business users. First up will be the 13.3-inch Edge using AMD’s Turion and Athlon Neo dual core processors, but Intel CULV Core 2 Duo and regular Core 2 Duo CPUs will also be on offer across the range. There’s also optional Bluetooth, WiMAX and 3G to go along with the standard WiFi.
Other features include larger, multitouch-capable trackpads, more color options than the usual ThinkPad “you can have any color, as long as it’s black” choice, ThinkVantage for automatic restores and system recoveries, and – on the larger machines – backlit keyboards. Lenovo have also reworked the keyboard layouts, junking some of the less-frequently used or legacy buttons and prioritizing media playback controls over function keys.
The 13-inch Lenovo ThinkPad Edge is available from today, priced from $549. As for the 14- and 15-inch versions, they’ll arrive in Q2 2010, pricing to be confirmed; Best Buy will also sell SKUs based on the 14-inch model.
