Seems like Lenovo has made the first call to taking in an NVidia Ion chipset with its upcoming IdeaPad S12 netbook.
The GPU will definitely boost performance of the netbook and be able to play 1080p HD videos. With a screen size of 12.1″ (1280×800 pixels), the unit can be hardly called a netbook anymore.
The S12 will still have an Intel Atom N270 CPU @ 1.6GHz, 1 GB RAM, 160GB HDD, 1.3 MP webcam, WiFi 802.11 b/g, and bluetooth. A 3-cell and 6-cell battery will also be included out of the box. There’s an option to have it with Intel GMA 950 too.
Should be out next month (June) and priced at $449 for the Intel GMA and 499 for the Nvidia Ion model {via PCWorld}.
