Lenovo Offers Power and Portability with New 12″ Widescreen Notebook

Lenovo today unveiled its first ultraportable widescreen notebook PC, the Lenovo V100, designed for on-the-go small business customers seeking powerful performance in a modern design. Weighing a sleek 4.0 pounds(1) and sporting a 12.1-inch widescreen display, the V100 offers professionals on a limited budget powerful dual-core performance, easy and reliable connectivity, widescreen efficiencies and new multimedia features. As with all Lenovo 3000 PCs, the V100 provides worry-free computing with a set of “Lenovo Care” productivity tools that help organize top tasks, most frequently used applications and help and support tools with the press of a button.

The V100 is available with Intel Coreâ„¢ Duo processors that efficiently run multiple programs simultaneously, such as business applications and virus scans. The V100 comes with an integrated optical drive for watching movies, playing music or installing software. It also offers complete connectivity features such as integrated 802.11 a/b/g wireless LAN and 10/100 Ethernet on all models, and Bluetooth on select models.

VibrantView also optimizes the multimedia experience by enabling users to view high-end graphic and video content in lowly lit environments. The V100’s widescreen, VibrantView display is complemented by Lenovo’s award-winning fully sized keyboard.
