The company is definitely pulling all the stops in its quest for supremacy

Touchscreen notebooks aren't the only things that Lenovo is paying a close attention to these days.

Indeed, the company is multitasking like crazy, aiming to cover all possible angles.

One such angle is that of low-cost, low-end tablets. The type of tablets that can't really sell anywhere, but which can find plenty of customers in China, like everything else really.

One tablet that Lenovo has recently started selling there is called A1000 and has a price of CNY 1,000.

That sum translates into $163 and €126. Ludicrously low sums really.

The slate has a 1024 x 600 pixels screen, TD-SCDMA communications support, 3G, dual-SIM card support (voice calls on two different networks), a 0.3-megapixel webcam, and a MediaTek dual-core CPU.

As far as ARM-powered gadgets go, it isn't that bad really. The OS is Android 4.1 and the screen size is 7 inches.
