Hasta La Gadget!

[CES 2013] The introduction of Windows 8 certainly brought along with it a slew of notebooks and Ultrabooks that is equipped with touchscreen functionality, so it comes across as no surprise to see Lenovo introduce an “upgrade” to their Lenovo IdeaPad range, where we will focus on the IdeaPad U310 Touch and IdeaPad U410 Touch. Both these models have been specially optimize for Windows 8′s multi-touch capability, and will come with a host of other multimedia-friendly features such as Dolby Home Theater v4 certified audio, a high definition 720p webcam, a ‘Palm Proof’ intelligent touchpad, USB 3.0 and HDMI connectivity.

Donning an extremely slim and ultra-portable book-shaped design, you will find that regardless of which model you choose, it will come in an ultra-stylish full color aluminum outer shell with a solitary vent on the D-cover. The Lenovo IdeaPad U310/U401 Touch will come in a playful choice of colors, and it will not fall short on the processing front with a 3rd generation Intel Core processor underneath the hood. The U310 Touch and U410 Touch will feature a 13.3″ and 14″ HD LED display, respectively.

There are certain things at CES we just won’t miss. Samsung’s press conference. Sony. Panasonic. And then there’s Intel. We attend the company’s keynote every year, and we intend to continue that tradition in 2013. Intel, of course, is being coy about what’s in store, only saying it has news to share around phones, tablets and laptops. (Guess there won’t be a “virtual cable TV service,” then?) What we do know is that Kirk Skaugen, VP and general manager of the PC client group, will be speaking, so we expect to hear lots about Ultrabooks, especially those of the touchscreen variety. In particular, we’re hoping to hear a little more about those rumored Y-series chips, whose lower-power design should be an ideal fit for all those laptop / tablet hybrids we’ve been testing. Guess we’ll find out tomorrow. Bookmark this link and come back at 4pm ET to get all the news as it’s breaking.
