New ThinkPad Series

Features: Lenovo has introduced two new ThinkPad

models that bring a new level of performance and portability to the world's most

recognizable notebook brand, extending the battery life of its notebook

computers to up to 11 hours.






Designed around Intel Centrino Duo mobile technology, the ThinkPad X60 Series
and ThinkPad T60 Series help business users move away from the office, offering

a wide range of connectivity options and allowing them to operate for longer

periods of time without a power cord.

The

ThinkPad X60 Series and T60 Series draw less power than previous X and T models

for extended battery life, improving battery performance in some models by as

much as 37 per cent. Intel dual-core processors improve productivity and

multitasking versus previous processors, allowing users to run multiple

high-performance applications — such as medical or engineering software, virus

scan or system backups — that might otherwise paralyze the PC.






ThinkVantage Access Connections 4.1 helps mobile users set up and automatically
switch from one available network connection to the next, helping reduce costly

help desk calls for assistance in changing IP settings, defining default

printers or accessing a wireless network. In addition to facilitating wireless

peer-to-peer networking, Access Connections 4.1 supports wired, WLAN and WWAN

connectivity.






All models feature a hardware switch to manually disable the system's wireless
antenna.
