Lenovo_Hybrid_Noteboook


Touted as the industry's first hybrid computer, Lenovo's IdeaPad U1 features a detachable screen with its own processor and operating system.

Effectively, IdeaPad U1 combines a slate and notebook in one device.

As soon as you pull out the 11.6-inch, 1.6 pound multi-touch-enabled screen, it powers up as a slate using its 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon ARM chipset and 16GB of flash memory running on Lenovo's custom Skylight touch-enabled version of Linux.

As a notebook, the 3.8 pound device uses an Intel Core 2 Duo CULV processor and a 128GB solid-state drive running on Windows 7.

"By fusing the functionality of a notebook with the slate tablet's rich multitouch entertainment and mobile Internet experience, U1 provides consumers the freedom to choose the device they prefer for any activity," says Liu Jun, senior vice president, Idea Product Group, Lenovo.

Notebooks with screens that swivel to become tablets have been around for some time, but they have so far worked with the same processor and operating system.

Leveraging the benefits of both CPU, the two devices can synchronize to work as one with the ability to share battery power, 3G wireless, data and documents. In this way, the base laptop system can serve as a hub and docking station and the slate tablet as a mobile device.

The two PCs have been engineered to work together and independently through Lenovo's Hybrid Switch technology that enables seamless toggling between the two processors. For instance, users can surf the Web in laptop mode and then continue from the same point without interruption if they detach to tablet mode.

The IdeaPad U1's laptop and tablet modes each support more than five hours of 3G Web browsing and 60 hours of 3G standby. In addition, the U1 comes with integrated video camera and two stereo speakers with integrated microphone with echo cancellation make this the ideal PC for users who need flexibility but do not want to compromise features or functionality.

The Lenovo IdeaPad U1 hybrid notebook will be available June 1, 2010 with an estimated retail price of $1,000.
