I love Lenovo.

Business:



Consumer:

The ThinkPad Tablet runs Android 3.1 and comes pre-loaded with a suite of business-friendly apps, including Documents to Go (for Microsoft Office compatibility), MyScripts Notes Mobile, Lenovo Launch Zone (an app launcher, basically), Lenovo SocialTouch (integrated mail, maps, calendar, and more), and a USB transfer utility. It also provides encryption for user data and SD cards, outputs 1080p video over HDMI, and supports Flash 10.3.

The big deal here, perhaps, is the optional ThinkPad Keyboard Folio add-on, which provides a ThinkPad keyboard and TrackPoint, transforming the ThinkPad Tablet into a laptop-like experience. There's also a separate ThinkPad Tablet Dock that lets you charge and sync the device. And the Tablet comes with an accurate, touch-sensitive pen so you can take handwritten notes; software built into the device will convert your handwritten notes to text.

The K1 is very thin and light, and at 13.3 mm thick is actually a tiny bit thinner than the iPad 2, which is 13.34 mm. And unlike the iPad, the K1 supports Adobe Flash 10.3. HDMI output from the device is 1080p quality, and since it supports various DRM content types, it could be a viable digital media alternative to the iPad.

Included software is consumer-heavy, of course: Google Mobile Services for Android 3.1, Flash 10.2, Lenovo Social Touch, Lenovo Media Gallery, Lenovo Video Player, Lenovo Music Player, Lenovo eBook Reader, Cloud, mSpot Music, Complete HD codes formats (except for MKV&MPEG-2 & RMVB), PlayReady DRM, Lenovo AppStore, Oovoo, Poketalk, eBuddy, Connectify, Facebook, Twitter, Norton Mobile Security, AccuEather, Dataviz: Documents to Go, Printershare, Zinio E-Mag, Amazon Kindle E-Book reader, Luck Launcher Games: Galaxy on Fire2, Need for Speed: Shift, Angry Birds, Vendetta Online, Murtha Drawing Pad, Talking Tom, Silver Creek: Solitaire, Silver Creek: Hearts, Silver Creek: Spades, Silver Creek: Euchre, Silver Creek: Backgammon, Warships, Treasure Arm, Flash Game Arcade, and more, depending on region.

There's a keyboard dock available for the K1, but it's more like the iPad keyboard dock in look and feel, basically a charger base with an attached keyboard. The K1 is also available in four colors: red, black, brown, and white.
