I will snap a Turion-based IBM-branded Thinkpad T(whatever number) as
soon as it comes out. Lenovo-branded? Remains to be seen if it has
the same build quality, look and feel as the T.


I think it'll be a little while before we see a Thinkpad with an AMD
processor inside. However, with the continuing good press that AMD is
getting at the expense of the bad press Intel is getting, it may not be
as long as I would've originally thought. I think currently Lenovo is
planning on introducing only consumer & SMB products with AMD inside.
The enterprise market will still get Thinkpads and Intel-only for the
time being. Highly ironic that the better processors are going into the
cheaper products.

As you said, no AMD option ;-(
Externally it to some extent resembles Thinkpad, but that greyish
(or is it silvery?) plastic makes it look cheap, just like another
Dell or HPQ. Should've stayed with matte black. The pics are too few
and too small to see the details. As for the screen quality, one
needs to see the real thing to judge.
