P1 Wimax used to have huge presence in PC Fair held before this, and I can guess it would be the same now especially with new product such as Wimax Inside notebooks that they’re currently heavily promoting it with their OEM partners. There are now 5 Wimax Inside notebook/netbook with addition of 2 notebook from Asus and MSI each on top of 3 notebook from Acer and Lenovo which available since the release day. Notebook package comes with 6 months of free P1 Wimax service, while netbook enjoy free P1 Wimax worth of RM278 (until spetember). Best of all, there is P1 Wimax IT Travel Kit freebies if you get your Wimax Inside laptop from PC Fair 2010.

If this is real and cheap, it is going to be the coolest netbook I’ve seen this month. I’ve to admit that , Lenovo Yoga is stylish yet pretty product from PC manufacturer that famous with Thinkpad family, powerful business notebook without a beauty.
It has the glimpse of Sony Viao P with almost identical shape and wide dimension, but Lenovo Yoga is actually smaller in size. The outer casing wrapped with wallet leather, together with the belt to complement the already beautiful device.
Beside the externally beautiful, Lenovo Yoga can turns to tablet PC and support touch screen with stylus. It got full keyboard keys, including ‘F’ keys, but it seems like there is no mouse pad as well as the camera. It could be hidden though.
I wish the end product going to be thinner, but tough enough to stand any unexpected pressure.
Don’t expect this little wonder going to be available on the market that soon. Even the spec and detail has yet to be released on post. Does it made for Windows 7 or Android OS? And FYI, this device has been designed since 2 years ago.
At the mean time, enjoy the photos below.

If there is notebook that I would love to see in my office’s cubicle, this is the one, ThinkPad w700ds.
First and foremost, I admired the dual-screen functionality that it has.The retractable 10.6″ screen expands the display area by 39 percent. It suit analyzing-orientation task that required many applications opened at any time, and do comparison and troubleshooting. Productivity can be slightly improved by reducing the task of switching between applications.
Other specs are not less impressive. Taken from product page -

Connectivity wise, it support variety of standard as follow. It is one of the earliest notebook that I found support WiMAX, meaning that you no longer need P1′s wimax’s modem to access their broadband(right??)

If you care about green and environment, W500 is GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality and EPEAT Silver certified and Energy Star 4.0 rated.
The only downside is the weight, which at 4.96 kg (10.9 lb) with one HDD for the dual-screen model. Obviously this is not really mobility gears to be carried everywhere.
And don’t expect this to come cheap. Be ready to splash USD3,069.00 for this monster.
