New Lenovo netbook

IdeaPad S10-2 set to be lighter and faster than its predecessor

Lenovo today announced the IdeaPad S10-2 netbook which includes 3G connectivity, Dolby headphone technology for music and movies and long battery life. Lenovo has also made the IdeaPad S10-2 netbook thinner and lighter than the previous IdeaPad S10 netbook.

“With the netbook scene rapidly changing, consumers are telling us they want to merge the capabilities of their most commonly used sources of electronic entertainment, such as digital photographs, online TV, music and social networks all into one portable and affordable device,” said Dion Weisler, vice president, Business Operations, Idea Product Group, Lenovo.

“We’ve incorporated that feedback into our new IdeaPad S10-2 netbook, giving consumers around the world more ways to connect with options for wireless connectivity, a more portable and expressive design and entertainment-packed features.”

While slimming down the netbook’s size for increased portability, Lenovo outfitted the netbook for usability by giving it a larger keyboard over previous models. The netbook also has identically sized and balanced shift keys on both sides of the keyboard.

The Idea Pad S10-2 also features three USB ports, a 4-in-1 card reader for flexibility in using different multimedia tools and up to six hours of battery life.

With Lenovo’s OneKey Rescue System consumers can also recover their data if it becomes corrupted. The tool can also be configured to run virus scanning before entering the main operating system to restore damaged files and allow users to back up and recover their data.

Additionally, the netbook includes Intel Atom processor technology and a 10.1inch LED screen.
