The folks at German news site Chip Online have scored a ton of information about the upcoming Lenovo Thinkpad x100e, which has been described by some as Lenovo’s upcoming business-class netbook. But it looks like while the Thinkpad x100e will be a thin and light ultraportable, it’s going to be a bit larger than your typical netbook.

is it me, or is this lenovo’s first notebook with amd cpu?
OK, why am I buying this instead of a U150?
I wish I could have got a netbook with a nipple mouse a loooong time ago. They’re awesome.
Why AMD? They don’t sell well. Even after using it a while, you can’t even resell the machine when you want to upgrade.
Wow – almost what I’ve been waiting for from Lenovo! Add CULV, 9 hours of battery life, and an HDMI port, and you have a winner.
