hi, i wanted to buy lenova's tablet asap, however i'm holding onto when the dual-core chip comes out.

Does anyone know, whens it coming out ?? The sales/cust serv of lenova had no clue about it

I wouldn't hold my breath for a dual-core tablet. My gues is that it will be a while, since the X41T is almost a brand new model.

Toshiba is coming out with its dual-core tablet, this feb. Sony is coming out with its VAIO notebook line and taking orders from jan 17. If Lenova doesn't come up quick, toshiba tablets are sure going to take the market ... as I myself would go for toshiba.

And then I would ask, do you really need so much power in a 12" machine which prolly isn't going to be your main machine.

It is amazing how many people (crazy..IMHO ) use their 12" ultraportables as their main machine...I could see them using the tablet this way as well!

hehe, I use my X40 as my main most of the time now. My other computers are just rusting away...

I just sold my T42 and use the X41Tablet as my main machine. The dual core machine would be useful for me in that battery life is supposed to be 35% greater and the faster 2.5 vs. 1.8 hard drive would be nice.
