The Lenovo ThinkPad lineup grew a little bigger this week when Lenovo revealed the ThinkPad X200s notebook and the ThinkPad X200 tablet. The Lenovo ThinkPad X200s will give Lenovo an ultraportable laptop to compete against the likes of Toshiba, while the ThinkPad X200 tablet will eventually replace the ThinkPad X61 tablet notebook.
With a 12.1-inch widescreen and an SSD (solid state drive) option, the ThinkPad X200s will be able to compete against the likes of the Toshiba Portege R500-S5007V, another ultraportable laptop that came out earlier this year. The ThinkPad X200s weighs about 2.4 pounds, but users can add an extended 9-cell battery option that increases the weight by about a half pound but will extend the battery life up to 13 hours, according to Lenovo.
