Lenovo Announces Netbook with 3G

Hot on the heels of the IdeaPad S10 (Red), Lenovo on Monday announced the newest incarnation of its netbook line, the S10-2. The S10-2 has slimmed down to a mere .71 inches thick and a starting weight of 2.2 pounds. The new model also comes equipped with Dolby speakers and a new chassis design that comes in black, white, pink, or gray.

Like our recent Editors' Choice budget laptop, the Acer Aspire 3935, the S10-2 employs a multitouch touchpad (hopefully to better effect). For extra protection, the laptop incorporates VeriFace face-recognition software, as well as OneKey Rescue System for data recovery.The S10-2 will likely be a good candidate for our GreenTech certification. It's RoHS and Energy Star compliant, and even comes with energy-management software.

Otherwise, the S10-2 is pretty similar to its predecessors, incorporating three USB ports, a 4-in-1 card reader, and an 89 percent keyboard (this time with an enlarged right shift key). The laptop sports a 10.1-inch LED screen and offers 1GB of RAM and 160GB of storage space. Lenovo promises as much as 6 hours of battery life with the S10-2's 6-cell battery.

The S10-2 should be available later this month for $349. A 3G-equipped version is slated for release this summer.
