Lenovo's mystery handheld
,----[ Quote ]
| No one--not even the PR people for Lenovo--could give me specific details.
| All they could say was that it is available in China, its home market, only.
| This video gives a bit more detail, including that it runs Linux and uses new
| 45-nanometer chips from Intel.

Lenovo - Linux Follow Up
,----[ Quote ]
| I’ve been following the discussion in the comments with much interest and a
| few things are becoming clear to me:
|
| 1. That we’re spending way too much time on the enterprise market and not
| enough on the enthusiast market. Enterprises have been, and will continue
| to be, slow to adopt Linux for some of the reasons I outlined, but there
| are nonetheless a LOT of people running Linux out there, especially on
| their ThinkPads.
