Today we bring you word of a pretty sweet deal on Lenovo’s ThinkPad X200 Tablet. If you have been in the market for a convertible tablet, it’s safe to say now is the time to pick the ThinkPad tablet up. The base price starts at a hefty $1929, but Lenovo is currently running a $485 instant discount with a special 15% stackable coupon and FREE upgrade to 250GB Hard Drive and 8-Cell battery upgrade. This amazing discount brings the base price down to $1365 shipped free.
The coupon is only valid until 8/17
Base system specs (upgradeable)
Intel Core 2 Duo SU9300 1.2GHz or SL9400 1.86GHz CPU options
Vista; Intel GMA 4500MHD; up to 4GB DDR3; Fingerprint reader
Up to 320GB Hard Drive or 64GB SSD; Bluetooth; 802.11n
It may not be much, but this $20 coupon isn’t too bad considering the IdeaPad S12 netbook is brand spanking new. The Intel-based S12 models come with the usual 1GB DDR2 RAM, 160GB hard drive, WiFi, Windows XP Home, and a generous 6-cell battery. The $20 coupon brings the price down to $479 with free shipping, but only until July 26!
You can also choose an S12 model equipped with VIA’s Nano ULV CPU and graphics, which are a good bit more powerful than Intel’s Atom, but at the cost of battery life. You also save $50 over the Atom-based units, if you’re so inclined. Find the VIA-based model (295956U) here, although it is only available in black.
Specifications (295955U White or 295954U Black)
Atom N270 1.6GHz; 1GB DDR2; 12.1″ WXGA; 160GB Hard Drive
GMA 950 Graphics; 802.11b/g WiFi; XP Home SP3; 6-cell Battery

Lenovo’s IdeaPad Y550 is their 16:9 15.6-inch entrant into the consumer arena, with a 720p capable 1366×768 LED-backlit display, standard DVDRW, generous hard drive capacities, and 6 cell battery.
Right now the baseline configuration of the Y550 is available until July 18 for only $494 after a $120 instant discount and stackable 10% coupon. Check out the specs below and details on the deal.
We haven’t mentioned the ThinkPad SL’s in our deals in a while, so here is the latest discount on these puppies. You can pick up an SL400 or SL500 starting at $466 each. A flat $146 discount applies, with a 15% off coupon stacked on for a total of $466 shipped.
What’s even better is these are the “Enhanced” models, which have higher specs than the normally uber-cheap ones. It is also worth noting that right now Lenovo is running a special on the SL500 where you can upgrade to the WSXGA+ AntiGlare screen for free as well. Check out the base specs below and then the details on the deals.

It’s not often this MacBook Air killer goes on steep sale, but today we bring you a whopping 25% off coupon on top of already discounted prices. If you’re not familiar with Lenovo’s ThinkPad X301, it is an uber thin & light 13.3-inch mobile workhorse with every feature in the book, but staying under 3 lb and less than an inch thin WITH an optical drive.
Whenever I post about the X301, I can’t help but post a favorite parody video of mine, which you can find embedded at the top of the post. For now, check out the base specs below and the details on how to get your 25% off. It is also worth noting, purchasing a Lenovo PC now qualifies for a free Windows 7 upgrade - see here for details.
Core 2 Duo SU9400 1.4GHz; Vista Basic; 13.3 WXGA+ LED
If you’ve read my review on Lenovo’s IdeaPad Y650, you’ll know I’m rather smitten with it. 16-inches of gorgeous LCD, sexy design, and HDMI output to boot? Well now is your chance to own one of these beauties for only $799 with free shipping. And this isn’t a stripped model either, as you can see in the specs below.
What’s the catch? This deal ends TODAY, or when 800 boxes have been ordered at this price. It’s worth noting their website calls for shipment in “4 weeks or more,” so this won’t be a “just-in-time” gift, but at this price I wouldn’t be complaining. Specs and deal details below
Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 2.53GHz | Vista Home Premium 64
4GB DDR3 | 320GB 5400rpm HDD | DVD Recordable
6 cell Lithium-Ion | Intel Wi-Fi Link 5100

It’s not very often that Lenovo’s top of the line mobile workstation is 25% off. Add to that a $479 discount on the W700 and $704 off the W700ds, and this has the making for some record savings on these behemoth ThinkPads.
The base specs are generous, even if they are on the low end for a performance monster like the W700. The coupon is expected to end July 6th, so treat yourself to a special July 4th and order one before the sale expires!
This isn’t one of the usual deals we bring you, but where better to share this than a ThinkPad blog? Overseas reseller Meritline has TrackPoints on sale for an incredible bargain. How does $0.39 each, or $0.99 for a 4 pack, SHIPPED to your door sound? Unfortunately they only have the Soft Dome style, which I don’t particularly prefer. My multitude of ThinkPads and ThinkPad-style keyboards all have the Soft Rim cap on them. Luckily I have a stash of those handy.
The website notes the caps will ship within 2-5 days via Hong Kong Air Mail and most customers will receive their caps within 2 weeks. If you order some, let us know which you bought and how long it takes to get to you!
Lenovo announced their first CULV-based laptop at the end of May, leaving the IdeaPad U350 in-between netbooks and higher powered, full-sized notebooks. Last week saw the release of the IdeaPad U350 for public purchasing and it was even on sale for 10% off.
Today we bring you word of a $100 off coupon for the sexy U350. We expect the coupon to expire in a couple days, so if you were looking at picking up a U350 the clock is ticking. Specs and deal details below:
Core 2 Duo SU2700 ULV 1.3GHz; 2GB DDR2; 13.3″ HD WXGA LED
250GB hard drive; 4-cell Battery; 802.11n WiFi; GMA X4500MHD
802.11n WiFi; Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR; 1yr warr; Vista Home Premium
While you hear most netbooks discussed as in the “$300 price range,” the reality is that the majority of netbooks are in the $400 price range and accordingly, are rather well spec’d. The ones actually priced around $300 are few and far between, especially with a lot of recent netbook refreshes, like Lenovo’s IdeaPad S10-2 and S12.
For those who can’t afford the extra $50-100 for one of the new netbooks, or prefer the older model for design differences, Buy.com has an IdeaPad S10e on sale for $298.99 with free shipping. Sales tax also only applies in CA, MA, TN, and NY, which will likely help some people out. The model is decently spec’d out, but does lack the 6-cell battery found on the newer models. Still, it’s hard to literally get below $300 these days, so jump on this before they run out.
