Roundup: 5 Takes On the Lenovo ThinkPad X300

After Apple stole the show with their amazing Macbook Air, it was easy to overlook Lenovo's announcement of their own 0.73 inch thick, 3ish pound laptop—that, by the way, features a 13.3-inch display, 64GB SSD, DVD burner, EVDO, WiMax, GPS, 3 USB ports, and a blessed swappable battery.

And at $2,680.00 (2GB configuration), it may seem a bit expensive...but compared to the Macbook Air's $3,098.00 (solid state configuration), it seems like a steal. So what did the reviewers think? Here are five takes on the ultraportable...

Yeah. I didn't know about the X300 -- except that when I went laptop shopping over the weekend (mostly, doing a run through the offerings on dynamism), the X300 stood out with a combination of features I want -- if also a hefty price tag.

If I don't lame out, I might very well get one (though not through Dynamism, whose pricing is very much based on being the top Japanese importer)

It's available direct from Lenovo now.

*sigh*

I've ordered one.
