Lenovo today announced the availability of the IdeaPad U110 consumer notebook PC, the star of Lenovo's IdeaPad entertainment and fashion-oriented notebook collection and winner of three Best-of-Show awards at the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show. Select models of the notebook will be available in red and black on Lenovo's website today.




Lenovo also announced the expansion of its retail partner lineup to bring the IdeaPad line of notebook PCs to more consumers across the U.S. New partners currently carrying select models of the IdeaPad notebooks and who will offer the IdeaPad U110 notebook beginning in mid-May, include B&H, CompUSA, J&R and RCS Experience. Existing retailers now expanding their Lenovo IdeaPad portfolios to sell the new notebook include Micro Center, Newegg.com and Tiger Direct. Lenovo will also sell the full line of IdeaPad notebooks - select models of the U110, Y510 and Y710 with Game Zone - on http://www.lenovo.com beginning today.

IDC forecasts the worldwide consumer notebook market to grow annually by 24 percent from 2006-2011 with the U.S. consumer notebook segment growing 16 percent in this time period.1

"Since we unveiled the new line of Lenovo IdeaPad notebooks in January, we've added several new relationships, helping expand our strategy to reach new customers through online retailers, or 'e-tailers', the fastest growing consumer purchasing space, and regional and national retailers," said Scott DiValerio, president, Americas, and senior vice president, Lenovo Group. "We're confident the much-anticipated IdeaPad U110 notebook will give customers a unique and rewarding computing experience, helping them record, share and transform their ideas."

IdeaPad U110 Notebook: Striking Design, Ultra-Portability and Cutting-Edge Features
A striking red or black cover finished in textured metal gives the IdeaPad U110 notebook an eye-catching design that is ideal for the fashion-conscious user. Enhanced by a frameless screen and weighing less than 2.5 pounds,2 the 11-inch wide notebook's infinite-like viewing experience and thin and light frame cater to the highly mobile user, proving style and technology can go hand-in-hand. Equipped with VeriFace Face Recognition, users can quickly and easily log-in without having to remember passwords. Dolby Home Theatre and the MultiMedia Control Center provide excellent sound quality while putting multimedia options at the user's fingertips.

Lenovo tailored the notebook for a perfect fit on performance with a 120GB hard drive, up to 3GB of memory, Intel Centrino processing technology, a built-in camera, WLAN, Ethernet and Bluetooth (select models) connectivity, an external DVD burner and the Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium operating system. To keep this ultimate PC accessory running longer without having to plug in for power, it comes with an additional battery for up to eight hours of battery life total. Additionally, Lenovo's Active Protection System provides extreme durability by temporarily parking the hard drive if the notebook should fall or drop.

Each notebook in the IdeaPad family shares innovations including convenient facial log-in and authentication, fully-loaded entertainment and multimedia and distinctive designs, with each also offering a number of extra features that maximize the user's experience.
