Lenovo CEO Stabs At The iPad, Ignores His Own Tablets' Faults

glasshouseLenovo is the fastest growing PC maker in the world. The Chinese computer company outgrew every other PC maker for the past seven quarters and is now the third largest PC maker by volume. There's no questioning Lenovo is a major player in the desktop and notebook fields -- and soon tablets, or so says the CEO, Yang Yuanquing. Lenovo recently announced three tablets, the Honeycomb ThinkTab and IdeaPad K1 along with the Windows-powered IdeaPad P1. The first two just hit the market with the Windows tab coming this fall. With these three tablets, each with a distinct target demographic, Lenovo hopes to surge to the front of the tablet race. Of course that means going head-to-head with the iPad, a product Lenovo's CEO sees as a top-tier item and whose $500 price puts it out of reach of those in "the small cities, townships, low salary class, low-income class." Someone should probably tell Yuanquing that his craptastic IdeaPad is only $50 less.
