This product first appeared in mat Consumer Electronic Show (CES) in 2010. Skylight screens can also be bent up to 180 degrees like the Lenovo ThinkPad series. When the power button lit, Skylight can be accessed directly. No need to wait too long loading OS like Windows. In terms of OS, Skylight uses Linux lenovo developed specifically for this product. His name is Lenovo OS. It looks very light and simple. Inside there is a direct pre-loaded 18 pieces widget. Functions the same as the Windows 7 taskbar or the Mac’s dock.

Would be a ‘New Toy’ The Operator
In addition Android platform, maybe it would be smartbook ‘new toy’ the operators. Lenovo to sell it because the business model package, like the BlackBerry or iPhone. Actually, this Skylight can run without using the formal operator. Seeing the potential market is so large in Indonesia, of course, our operators will be competing to make the Internet a suitable package for the needs of its customers.
Until now Lenovo’s own party states have not done an assessment by the operators. Later, this product is planned to come in the third quarter of 2010, after the release in China and America.
