The Best Ultrabooks for CES 2013 Journalists


Lenovo-Thinkpad-Carbon-X1-29.jpgOK, maybe this post is a bit late as tech journalists count down the last few hours to press day at CES 2013 but it was something I put together last night as I thought about what Ultrabook i’d like to have if I had been there this year. I wonder how many bloggers and journos are already using Ultrabooks at CES. It would be very interesting to walk through the press rooms and take a straw poll. If you’re reporting from CES 2013 and have 30 seconds, let us know what laptop you’re using and plug your website.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Touch Starts at $1499, Shipping 22 Dec

Order the Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon Touch today and you could be swiping and pinching your way through the holidays later this month.

Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon First Impressions


2012-11-19-1207
