In a press release dated for tomorrow, Lenovo officially announced the existence of 14-inch and 15-inch versions of its new ThinkPad Edge lineup, appropriately dubbed the Edge 14 and Edge 15.
These models sport the same general design, with the same island or isolation style keyboard. While the more budget and battery life oriented Edge 13 can only be had with lower end AMD or Intel CULV processors, its larger brethren get a bit more power under the hood. $599 base models are saddled with Celeron chips, but you have the option to upgrade to spiffy Core i3 or Core i5 chips as well.
The full range of features will be available, including Bluetooth, 3G, 4GB, WiFi, 7-in-1 card reader, optional AMD graphics, optional Blu-ray and HDMI output. To help open its appeal to the masses, all Edge models are available in three colors: red, glossy black and matte black.
The Edge 14 and 15 are available through resellers now and will hit additional partners, as well as Lenovo’s website, in April. Starting price is $599 with Intel Celeron processors.

Oh joy. More ThinkPad knock-offs.
really gotta love those 16:9 displays, that is if you job involves watching widescreen movies on notebooks
Lenovo, are you going to provide high-res displays (WSXGA+: 1680×1050, or WUXGA: 1920×1200) and built-in DVD drives, since you want theses machines to be used by small businesses (and NOT for watching movies)?
Oh please, kindly provide WSXGA+/WUXGA at least on T410, T410s. Please…
