Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet Review

Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet Review
  • Posted November 22, 2011, 9:53 PM by Shawn Knight | Filed in TechSpot, Mobile Computing
  • Lenovo has expanded their line of computing devices to include tablets. The company introduced two new slates earlier this year – the consumer-oriented IdeaPad K1 and the business-minded ThinkPad Tablet that we are examining today.

Here are some key aspects where I believe PC makers should focus and where some are already failing on their first try to deliver a killer ultrabook.
