New Lenovo IdeaPad S12 with VIA


Trading in with some battery life and get a bit of speed in the deal?

Lenovo is now offering its spanking new S12 netbook with a VIA Nano ULV 2250 processor and VIA Chrome9 HC3 graphics instead of the usual Intel Atom) and lops $50 off the original's spendy $500 asking price.

The Nano setup will draw more battery than the Atom, so you might want to invest that extra cash in another battery if you can track one down, but at least the $450 price includes a 6 cell as standard.
