Hang on to your hats, ladies and gentlemen -- we've got a preposterously large helping of ThinkPad news coming at you tonight. We're talking details and photographs of the forthcoming X200, SL, T, and R series laptops, so without further adieu, let's get to know the X200 a touch better. Preliminary slides are hinting at the following hardware:
* 12-inch WXGA panel
* 45nm Core 2 Duo CPUs up to 2.4GHz
* Intel Centrino 2 with vPro technology
* SSDs up to 64GB
* WiMAX / WWAN / GPS / WiFi / UWB / Bluetooth
* Magnesium alloy top and bottom covers
* 9.6-hours of battery life on the 9-cell pack
* DDR3 RAM
* 1.3-megapixel camera
* DisplayPort connector
* 3 USB ports
* Starts at 2.93 pounds
If we've already got you hot and bothered, you should probably grab a dry towel before heading on past the break. There's more where this came from.
Highlights of ThinkPad SL Series:
* SL300 / SL400 / SL500 models
* 13.3-inch / 14.1-inch / 15.4-inch WXGA panels (SL500 has WSXGA+ option)
* Core 2 Duo processors
* Integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD or discrete NVIDIA GeForce 9300 graphics
* ExpressCard / FireWire / 3+ USB ports
* Optional Blu-ray drive
* WWAN / WiMAX / WiFi / Bluetooth / GPS
Highlights of ThinkPad T Series:
* T400 / T500 models
* 14-inch / 15-inch panels
* Intel Centrino 2 with vPro up to 2.8GHz
* Optional 64GB SSD / 320GB HDD
* 512MB ATI Mobility FireGL V5700 graphics
* DDR3 RAM
* WWAN / WiMAX / WiFi / Bluetooth
Highlights of ThinkPad R Series:
* 14.1-inch R400 / 15.4-inch R500 models
* Montevina Penryn Core 2 Duo processors
* Up to 320GB HDD
* Up to 4GB DDR3 RAM
* Integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD or discrete ATI Mobility Radeon 3470 graphics
* 3 USB / FireWire / ExpressCard / VGA
As you can likely imagine, this is just the tip of the iceberg. For more proposed specifications and glances at Lenovo's (likely) forthcoming lappies, check out the gallery below.
