Lenovo IdeaPad G Series gets official... in Malaysia
Well hey, there's Lenovo's rumored IdeaPad G Series on the company's Malaysian website as of this afternoon. It's not a netbook after all, but a cheap, nice-looking laptop. Specs for the G400 are slightly less great than what we've heard, but they're not bad: 1.86GHz T2390 Core 2 Duo with X3100 integrated graphics driving a 14.1-inch display, 160GB hard drive, 2GB of RAM, a dual-layer burner, and b/g WiFi -- no n, apparently. Pricing is listed at just RM1,999 ($631), so if this thing ever makes it to the States it'll probably make that Eee 1000 decision just a little harder, no?[Thanks, Nick]

I don't see why this particular laptop would make the EEE1000 look worse, seeing how the 10" EEEs are a pretty horrible concept, and most of us already know that.
I mean, this Ideapad is nice, but it's nothing more than a fairly priced laptop, like so many other, and so unlike the EEE.

Let's hope they put a GB NIC in it before it gets here. 10/100? What part of 1998 do they love so much that just can't move forward?

The G series has been known for a long time now.

The G series has been out a long time. Locally it sells for less than the EEE PC 1000 series.
