Lenovo talks up LePhone, shows off app store ahead of May launch
Lenovo's Android-based LePhone (not LePhono, sadly) may not be officially launching in China until next month, but the company did just hold a launch event of sorts in the country, in which it revealed a few new details and did a fair bit of boasting. According to The Wall Street Journal, Lenovo says that it's aiming to sell "millions" of the phones in the next five years, and "tens of millions" after that -- although not just involving this particular phone, obviously. Lenovo COO Rory Read also reportedly further added that the company is ready for a "tough fight" against Apple's iPhone, and that Lenovo will have a "better brand position" that RIM, which hasn't yet gained a significant foothold in China. That's certainly plenty ambitious for a company new to the cellphone space, and should no doubt only further fuel those rumors of a certain acquisition.

Lenovo Skylight launch pushed off to July, IdeaPad U1 Hybrid still on track
It was one of the best-looking products at this year’s CES, but you won’t be able to buy one anytime soon. Today we learned from Lenovo sources that the Skylight is getting pushed back to July from the original April time frame. However, the company’s first smartbook will start selling in China this May and show up in other markets in June. Here’s what the company told us: “With any new product that we introduce, we owe it to our customers to get it right and we would rather take the little extra time that sometimes takes to finalize a product.”
We’d argue that three months is more than a little extra time, but we can certainly understand Lenovo and AT&T wanting to make sure the product is fully baked. After all, the Skylight will likely be the first smartbook on the market when it hits (unless the Mobinova Beam beats it to the punch). If you’re wondering if the U1 Hybrid will also be pushed back, fret not. Lenovo says that product remains on track for a June launch.
What I’m wondering, though, is whether AT&T is still committed to the smartbook category at a time tablets like the iPad are taking off. The carrier also announced the OpenPeak tablet at CTIA but didn’t say a word about smartbooks. Do people want a clamshell instant-on device, or would they just prefer a slate? We’ll have to see what happens come July.

Lenovo C200 brings NVIDIA Ion 2 stateside for $499
If you've been patiently waiting on a low-cost NVIDIA Ion 2 system it looks like today is your lucky day since it looks like Lenovo has scored an early lead in unleashing the wrath of the new Atom / GeForce combo. Available sometime this month, the 18.5-inch C200 all-in-one isn't going to replace that Core i7 rig for ripping through Command & Conquer 4, but its Intel dual-core Atom D510 CPU can handle the light productivity while its GeForce G210 GPU will automatically turn on -- thanks to Optimus -- to deal with some Spore or 1080p video. Unfortunately the C200 only has a single touch, 1366x768-resolution display and a standard integrated DVD drive rather than Blu-ray, but we guess we can't expect much more for its appealing $499 price tag. Lenovo will also offer a sans Ion and touch version of the C200 for $399.

Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3s slims down, retains its old specs sheet
What's this? A Lenovo product that hasn't been leaked before its official announcement? Truth is that's the biggest surprise we've got for you here, considering the updates to this S10-3s are fairly minimal -- but hey, if you've always thought previous Lenovo netbooks were too plus-size, we guess there's reason to get excited. While the S10-3 that was introduced at CES is an inch thick, the S10-3s seems to have been on that P90X routine that's making the rounds, as it measures just .6-inches thick and tips the scales at 2.4 pounds. Internally there's been little renovation -- it will be available with Intel's Atom N450 / N470 processors, a gig of RAM and your choice of 160/250/320GB hard drives. Those impressive measurements, a $379 starting price and a downright luscious chiclet keyboard could really put Lenovo ahead of the other Pine Trailers, but we'll hold final judgment until it's available in mid-April and we see it for ourselves.
