THINKPAD X301’S ARE UP FOR GRABS

The innovative X300 sees enormous price drops with the basic configurations even down to $1,839 at present. Lenovo has distributed the ThinkPad X301 (an update to the original X300 ultra-portable) right on agenda. The novel X301 series notebooks are now obtainable at Lenovo's portal for US buyers in 2 break up SKUs - one standard replica with incorporated graphics whereas the other one is slightly luxurious but approaches with incorporated 3G AT&T mobile broadband.

ThinkPad X301's base configuration comes pre-loaded with Core 2 Duo SU9400 (1.4GHz, 3MB L2, 800MHz FSB) ULV CPU, operating system donned by Windows Vista Business, 1GB DDR3 1067MHzRAM (promotable to 3GB), Intel Wi-Fi Link 5100 (AGN) and 3-cell battery. Graphics on both the variants are motorized by Intel's onboard GMA 4500MHD chip. We sense your pain here but rumor has it that it must be very firm to fit a distinct GPU in its slim framework. Screen is again a 13.3" WXGA+ LED backlight one. The Ultra-thin DVD Burner drive is non-compulsory and a $225 upgrading (ouch!).

Accessibility condition for X301 on Lenovo's portal reads as "Ships within 1-2 weeks" so there you contain it. It's approximately there once you position your orders. Base configuration is $2,575 and the one with 3G AT&T Mobile Broadband the high spec variant is $2,655.
