Lenovo's IdeaPad V460 Laptop Gets Listed

Even though the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show took place several months ago, there are still quite a number of products that were previewed and that still haven't managed to reach the store shelves. Until recently, this was also the case with a certain business-class notebook that Lenovo had shown off. Known as the IdeaPad V460, the mobile personal computer seems to have finally come out from wherever it was hiding and is ready to cater to the needs of those end-users willing to wait for 13 business days for it to arrive.

The new PC measures 14 inches and uses an LED-backlit liquid crystal display whose maximum screen resolution is of 1,366 x 768 pixels. The system configuration has an Intel Core i3-330 central processing unit at its heart, which can have a clock speed of either 2.13GHz or 2.26 GHz, depending on the user’s preferences and willingness to pay an extra $100. Whichever chip is selected, it will be backed up by 4 GB of PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM, running at 1,066MHz. The laptop also boasts a hard disk drive, with a storage space of 320GB, and a DVD writer.

When it comes to graphics capabilities, the IdeaPad V460 has to make do with only the integrated graphics. Other models in the V series are known for their NVIDIA switchable graphics, but this particular device seems to make do with just the multimedia capabilities of the Intel GMA HD. As for connectivity and I/O options, Lenovo's notebook is designed with Gigabit Ethernet, WiFi and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR.

The Lenovo IdeaPad V460 can be found listed on the official website, in two versions, one based on the 2.13GHz chip and the other running the 2.26GHz part. Both configurations come pre-loaded with the Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit operating system and have starting prices of $899 and $999, respectively.
