Asus' Transformer had better watch its back now that Lenovo has announced it's Transformer Prime-baiting IdeaPad S2. Not only is it Ice Cream Sandwich flavoured, but it throws up an impressive 20 hours battery life when combined with the dedicated keyboard dock.

Will it still run android when connected to the keyboard? Would be cool if it could run windows while connected. I have never felt that I needed a keyboard for my android products, but maybe there's a well thought out reason for it.

why is the bit where the screen is connected to the keyboard always cut out of the video?

@thevillageorge but my main point really was the apps. As I said, android (and the apps for it) need to work on a zillion different devices, which means that a lot of them don't work properly on any of them. iOS, its and the apps for it are optimized for maybe 4 devices at a time? Guess which one works better.

I'm impressed that this and the Trans. Prime offer genuine alternatives to the tablet market at the top instead of what most Android tablets offer but it'll take a few years of tinkering to reach the iPad level. I personally won't get this but a newbie to tablets might consider and that's a good thing in my opinion.
It's a valid alternative to the iPad... brilliant. As for Lenovo, they've had a stunning CES 2012. Massively impressed with their range.

@Vmt16 I agree. As impressive this is, the major flaw is the Android interface. It's cool to look at and customize but do the apps have the reliability of iOS? I don't think so. In a few years though, who knows. But for now, I personally am not so sure.
Nice idea though, this and the Transformer Prime.

@Vmt16 ...then just go buy an iPad and be happy. The whole point of having a keyboard dock is for a physical keyboard - which some people prefer. Same with bluetooth keyboards for the iPad.
Not everyone finds using touchscreens for typing great.
