The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 was impressive enough, until you ran into that problem where it tended to die at the worst times, so Lenovo figured it would fix that.

The evidence of an impending update has been removed already, of course, or at least Lenovo tried to erase it.

Engadget was able to spot and point it out, though, revealing the ThinkPad X1 Hybrid.

Basically, this is an X1 that has an Instant Media Mode, which is an Android platform that looks like the user interface of IdeaPad K1.

Basically, users can stay on that Android software for everything except high-performance and productivity tasks.

As such, up to 10 hours of web browsing are possible, and 8 hours of multimedia.

Lenovo promises (or at least the now unavailable page said) that it will be easy and fast to switch between the two modes.
