It looks like the laptop isn't exclusive to China after all

The “ultrabook convertible” product type got introduced just a few days ago, but it is really more of a retroactive baptism for all the convertible ultrabooks that existed before.

One of the ultrabooks with the ability to become a tablet is called ThinkPad Helix and was invented by Lenovo.

Unfortunately, this particular device is not available worldwide. In fact, it was supposed to only be sold in China, Lenovo's home market.

New information suggests that the laptop will be sold in Israel as well, meaning that the rest of the world should receive it too, sooner or later.

ThinkPad Helix is an 11.6-inch ultrabook (1920 x 1080 pixels) with a detachable IPS touchscreen and 10-hour battery life. It runs on a Core i7 Intel CPU, features 3G, a stylus, and near field communication (NFC).
